   It's the World Atlas of Language Structures Online.  It has large   
   lists of (mostly more interesting phonological and grammatical)   
   features and corresponding maps of the languages indigenous to that   
   part of the world.  I guess the compilers didn't have any data for   
   tea words in a Chilean language, but if they did, it would be for   
   something like Mapuche rather than Spanish, which is located on the   
   Iberian peninsula.   
      
   You may want to browse a bit in WALS, it's an interesting resource.
