Alicia bPérez
Spanish translation:Ternera????
Explanation:
Without any more context, I can only presume you are referring to veal, which is "(carne de) ternera".

Although in Spain beef generally called is called "ternera", as it is far younger than beef from other countries and isn't hung as long. You can also get "(carne de) vacuno" which is a little older and also "(carne de) buey" which is ox.

Ni idea si hay otra palabra pa este tipo de carne en Argentina :-)

Spot the Brit in Spain who misses a good bit of Scotch beef!!!!!

ternero alimentado a pasto


Explanation:
from USDA - FSIS:
"Baby beef" and "calf" are 2 interchangeable terms used to describe young cattle weighing about 700 pounds that have been raised mainly on milk and grass. The meat cuts from baby beef are smaller; the meat is light red and contains less fat than beef. The fat may have a yellow tint due to the vitamin A in grass.
