Although it is a specific term, there are several synonyms that can be used to describe similar garments. For example, a "capa" is another type of Spanish cloak, often made of wool or silk. A "pañuelo" is a scarf or shawl worn over the head and shoulders, while a "chal" is a similar garment often made of thick wool. In some contexts, a "poncho" or "ruana" may also be used to describe a similar style of cloak or cape. Ultimately, the synonym used will depend on regional variations, cultural context, and personal preference.
