Huerto or Huerta
From Eating Asturias, the Encyclopedia of Asturian Gastronomy
If there are two more confused (and potentially confusing) words in Castellano (or Asturianu), I am unaware of them.
Huerto / Güertu
A small piece of land, usually walled or fenced, for the cultivation of vegetables and fruit trees.[1] The best English translation is "kitchen garden", as both that term and huerto are functionally identical to the French potager.
Huerta / Güerta
A large piece of land, for the cultivation of vegetables and fruit trees. Irrigated land.[2]
