Cultural Tip

In most Spanish‑speaking countries *cinta adhesiva* is the standard term for what English speakers call "duct tape" or "sticky tape". In some regions people also say *cinta de pegar* or simply *cinta* when the context is clear. The adjective *resistente* is often used in retail to differentiate a regular tape from a heavy‑duty version.
