I've wondered about this but never heard anyone say anything about it. That is, anyone who is from Puerto Rico knows that the word chavón means a person who is an annoying pain in the butt. It's used as an expletive. The Dominicans know this too. Yet, somehow no one ever brings it up. It's a deafening silence, if you will. I would appreciate any comments from those in the know for my informal linguistic research on this question. It seems that it colors the reception of place names like Altos de Chavón, Río Chavón, etc. No offense is intended with this query.Godofredo29 (talk) 16:04, 14 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
