comportamiento

The Spanish word 'comportamiento' translates to 'behavior' in English. It is used to describe the actions or reactions of a person or animal in response to certain situations or stimuli. It encompasses a range of activities, emotions, and attitudes, just like the English word 'behavior'. This word is common in discussions involving psychology, sociology, and other social sciences.

Here's how to use it:

  • El comportamiento de los ni帽os en la clase fue ejemplar.
  • La policia est谩 investigando el comportamiento sospechoso.
  • El comportamiento de Juan fue inaceptable.

comparar

The word 'comparar' is used in Spanish almost identically to how 'compare' is used in English. It is most commonly used when examining the similarities or differences between two things. For example, you may comparar two books, two ideas, or two options to make a decision. It is also used in expressions like 'no hay comparaci贸n' (there's no comparison) to express that something is incomparably better.

Here's how to use it:

  • Necesito comparar estos dos productos antes de comprar.
  • No debes comparar tus resultados con los de los dem谩s.
  • Vamos a comparar los beneficios de cada opci贸n.

conversaci贸n

The Spanish word 'conversaci贸n' is used just like the English word 'conversation'. It refers to the informal exchange of ideas by spoken words. This noun is used in various contexts, such as having a conversation ('tener una conversaci贸n'), starting a conversation ('comenzar una conversaci贸n'), or even ending a conversation ('terminar una conversaci贸n').

Here's how to use it:

  • La conversaci贸n fue muy interesante.
  • Por favor, podemos cambiar la conversaci贸n?
  • Ella inici贸 la conversaci贸n.

financiero

The Spanish word 'financiero' is used in the same contexts as its English equivalent, 'financial'. It refers to anything related to finance, money or the management of funds. It can be used in various contexts such as banking, investments, budgeting, or any scenario involving economic transactions.

Here's how to use it:

  • El mercado financiero es muy vol谩til.
  • El sector financiero juega un papel importante en la econom铆a.
  • Nosotros somos dependientes en un consultor financiero.

computadora

An electronic device for storing and processing data, typically in binary form, according to instructions given to it in a variable program.
