What is another word for pampas?
Pronunciation: [pˈampəz] (IPA) 
Pampas, which is commonly used to refer to the vast plains of South America, is a Spanish term. It is a very specific word, but there are synonyms that can be used to describe the same type of expanse. These include savannah, prairie, steppe, grasslands, and meadows. Savannas tend to have more trees than the pampas region, while prairies are characterized by tall grasses. The steppe, on the other hand, has shorter grasses and is located in arid regions. The term grasslands can be used as a general term for vast areas covered by grass, and meadows tend to be smaller areas that are often found in the forest. All of these words can be useful in describing a large, flat area of land covered with grass.
