entrevista The Spanish word for interview is 'entrevista'. It is used in the same context as in English, for a one-on-one conversation, typically between a job applicant and a potential employer, or between a journalist and a person of interest. For example, 'Tengo una entrevista mañana' means 'I have an interview tomorrow'. Here's how to use it: - Ellos grabaron la entrevista.
- ¿Cómo fue tu entrevista?
- Me gustó la entrevista.

respuesta The Spanish word for 'response' is 'respuesta'. It is used in the same context as in English, be it a reaction to something, a reply to a request, a question, or something that has been said. For example, you can say 'Su respuesta fue rápida', which translates to 'His/Her response was quick.' Here's how to use it: - La respuesta está en las estrellas.
- La respuesta fue más complicada de lo que pensé.
- La respuesta no estaba clara en el informe.

corto The Spanish word 'corto' translates to 'short' in English. It can be used to describe a range of things from physical length or duration of something. It can also be used in context to refer to a short film or story (cortometraje), short hair cut (corte corto) or short pants (pantalones cortos). The exact connotation can vary depending upon its application in sentence. Here's how to use it: - El corto fue premiado en el festival
- Corto en salto

fresa A strawberry is a sweet, red heart-shaped fruit, which is much loved for its delicious taste. They grow on small strawberry plants in the ground. Here's how to use it: - ¿Te gustan las fresas?
- Fresas con crema son un postre popular en México.
- El jugo de fresa es refrescante.

color In Spanish, 'color' is used the same way it is used in English. It conveys the visual characteristic predominantly resulting from the reflection, transmission, or emission of light of differing wavelengths. Just like in English, in Spanish, it can be used to describe hues seen in everyday life, arts, painting, and design. However, please note that in Spanish, color is pronounced as co-lor with the accent on the second syllable. Here's how to use it: - Las hojas cambian de color en otoño.
- ¿De qué color son tus ojos?
- Mi color favorito es el verde.
