Taco is singular spell tacos is plural. Taco is pronounced ta:ko. So, what precisely is a taco?? Taco is basically a tortilla alongside some sort of filling. I am certain you lot are at nowadays imagining a deep fried difficult shell heaped alongside meat, salsa, sour cream, cheese as well as a trivial lettuce. Well, you lot are non wrong.
