Armadillos seem really cool, do you know much about them?
Sure, the are New World placental mammals with a leathery armour shell. I see them all the time where I live.
Wow that's so cool, what is their native location?
They are native to the Americas. The word "armadillo" means "little armoured one" in Spanish!
Oh that makes sense. Do you know how big they are roughly?
They are roughly 2 feet in length and 1 feet wide. The Portuguese word for them is "tatu" which derives from the Tupi language.
Wow that's interesting, never heard of the Tupi language, can you tell me more about it?
Sure it has a written history spanning the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries. It was developed by Europeans when they visited America.
