You’re pretty much out of luck. Many of the words used in ranching and herding cattle are borrowed words from Spanish. Like “Ranch” and “lariet” and even cowboy. Ranchero, La rieta, Vaquero, and on and on.

I guess what I mean is the language as a foreign language, as opposed to loan words established in English.
