The Spanish word is Pascua for both the Jewish and the Christian conmemor=
ation.
Probably many Jewish communities use the Hebrew name, which is in Spanish=

orthography: _P=E9saj_ (=E9 =3D e acute).  I gues in the English-speaking=
 word, some
Jewish communities use _Passover_ and many other use _Pesach_.

Unrelated: I saw yesterday _Prince of Egypt_ from DreamWorks.  I enjoyed =
the
Movie about that first Pesach. ...
