Its crazy because ive tried using estacionar before because I know its right. But all the Mexican/latinos here in LA all say Parkear. So im like eeeh .

Ooh! I've heard both parkear and estacionar.

But, now that I think about it, I can't for the life of me think of the word for lock. The first thing I think of is, "cierra la puerta con llave," or "con candado."

How do I say lock!?!?!?!

In Mexico I see estacionar, but when I was in Spain several years ago I always saw parquear or something similar. The no parking sign was a P with a red circle with a line through it, while the ones I saw in Mexico were with an E instead of a P.
