More on Camino Real
Description from Wikipedia:
Camino Real is a 1953 play by Tennessee Williams. The title of the play can be pronounced "Ka-mee-no Ray-al" (with a Spanish pronunciation) or "Ka-min-o Reel" (with an American accent) - the title is intentionally ambiguous, that is, whether the play is about the "Royal Road" (the title's meaning in Spanish) or the "Real Road" (that is, the road of reality, the title's bi-lingual meaning combining English and Spanish).
Although this dual meaning exists, Tennessee Williams makes a clear distinction through Sancho's lines that the Camino Real of the play is pronounced "Ka-min-o Reel".
SANCHO: Aw, naw. I know this place. (He produces a crumpled parchment.) Here it is on the chart. Look, it says here: "Continue until you come to the square of a walled town which is the end of the Camino Real and the beginning of the Camino Real. Halt there," it says, "and turn back, Traveler, for the spring of humanity has gone dry in this place..."
