usar

The word 'usar' is the Spanish translation for the English verb 'wear', commonly used to refer to the action of carrying or having something on one's body as a garment or accessory. For instance, when relating to clothes, shoes, glasses, etc. It can also imply the action of the continuous utilization of something, causing it to deteriorate over time.

salvación

The Spanish word 'salvación' translates to 'salvation' in English. In a religious context, it refers to the act of saving or protecting from harm, risk, loss, destruction, etc. It's often used to denote deliverance from sin and its consequences. In a broader sense, salvation can also mean liberation or rescue from any dire situation. In essence, 'salvación' carries a positive connotation symbolizing freedom or rescue from a negative circumstance.

fórmula (matemática)

The Spanish word 'fórmula (matemática)' translates to 'formula (mathematic)' in English. It's used in the field of mathematics and science, and it refers to a set of symbols that express a mathematical or scientific rule.

(el cielo) estar despejado

(el cielo) estar despejado is a phrase used in Spanish-speaking cultures to describe the condition of the sky. It refers to when there are no clouds obscuring the blue sky, allowing full visibility of the sky and the sun. In English, this phrase translates to '(the sky) to be clear'. The phrase can be used in daily conversations, weather reports, and poetic contexts to indicate the state of the weather, particularly the sky.
