One of my clients wants to write "Mountain of the gods" in Spanish on some shirts that he's ordering...but he has no clue about the Spanish language, so I thought I'd ask all you smart Spanish speakers. Can you help me out? Is it
"Montaņa de los dioses"? or "Montaņa de los gallineros"? or something completely different.
Thanks for the help in advance. By the way...it is Espaņol(Mexico specifically) that is predominant in the area I live, not Castillano.

"Gallineros" can mean "gods" but it usually refers to the top gallery of a theatre. "Montaņa de los dioses" would be more appropriate.

P.S. By the way, another meaning for gallinero is chicken coop, so it's probably better if your friend sticks to the first version!
