mata means to kill in spanish and portugese. your playing around here
with word tenses. and matar does in no way mean murder. it does mean
to kill, or to slay. mata is not an acceptable word usuage in spanish
with respect to the process of killing or slaying - it is however in
common usage.
FWIW, "MATA" in Spanish means "kill."
