vista

The Spanish word 'vista' is used to refer to the act of seeing, similar to how the word 'view' is used in English. It can be used in various contexts such as talking about views of a landscape ('vista al mar' - sea view), or about the perception or consideration of a specific topic ('a mi vista' - in my view).

Here's how to use it:

  • La vista del telescopio es impresionante
  • Me encanta la vista desde aquí
  • La vista desde el avión es increíble

sandía

Watermelon is a plant species in the family Cucurbitaceae, a vine-like flowering plant originally domesticated in West Africa. Its fruit, which is also called watermelon, is a special kind referred to by botanists as a pepo.

Here's how to use it:

  • Yo como una sandía.
  • La sandía es roja por dentro.
  • Corté la sandía en rodajas.

Ecología

Ecology is a branch of biology that studies the interactions among organisms and their environments. It explores the relationships among individuals within populations, among populations within communities, and between communities and their physical settings.

Here's how to use it:

  • Me interesa mucho la ecología.
  • Hacer reciclaje es bueno para la ecología.
  • La ecología es esencial para la vida en la Tierra.

responder

The Spanish word 'responder' is equivalent to 'respond' in English. It can be used similarly in various contexts where there is a need to answer or reply to a question, statement, situation or a need. For instance, 'Ella puede responder a la pregunta' translates to 'She can respond to the question'. Like its English counterpart, it is a common verb in the Spanish language.

Here's how to use it:

  • Maria va a responder a la carta mañana.
  • Debes responder de tus actos.
