🧠 What does reclamo mean?

A 'reclamo' is a masculine noun that primarily means a claim, complaint, or formal demand. It is often used in official, legal, or consumer contexts to refer to the act of demanding something one is entitled to, such as a refund, a right, or compensation. For instance, one might 'presentar un reclamo' (file a claim) with a company for a faulty product. Beyond this primary meaning, 'reclamo' can also refer to an attraction, a lure, or a main selling point, especially in the context of advertising or marketing, where it signifies something used to draw in customers. A third, more specific meaning is a decoy or birdcall used by hunters to attract birds.
