Ignacio, a disrespected cook at a Mexican monastery, can barely afford to feed the orphans who live there.

    The films Grandma's Boy and Nacho Libre come to mind, too.

    I just think of the Nacho Libre movie with Jack Black.

    As an American I agree with your assessment.

    When I first saw LibreOffice I first thought it was a take on the comedy movie Nacho Libre. And I studied French, so you'd think that would help but not really.

    Though the French pronunciation differs as the IPA shows /libʀ/ which is rather different than spanish /ˈliβɾe/. So its one of those "final e is silent, with a french twist" words that were maddening to learn after German where that almost never happens.

    I've heard a few people say this. Where are you from? Did people from your area have the same difficulty when the film "Nacho Libre" came out?
