| átomo The Spanish word 'átomo' translates to 'atom' in English. An atom is the basic unit of a chemical element, and the smallest unit of matter that retains the properties of an element. Atoms are composed of protons, neutrons, and electrons. They form the basis of any chemical reaction. The word 'átomo' is used in scientific and educational contexts in Spanish speaking regions largely equivalent to its usage in English. Here's how to use it: El átomo es la unidad básica de la materia. El átomo de hidrógeno tiene un solo protón. La energía del átomo es inmensa. | |
| callejón sin salida The Spanish term 'callejón sin salida' translates to 'dead end' in English. It can be used to refer to a street or pathway that ends abruptly and does not lead anywhere. Metaphorically, it can also apply to situations with no apparent solution or way forward. Here's how to use it: Este camino solo nos lleva a un callejón sin salida; es mejor hacer un cambio de planes. Estamos en un callejón sin salida si seguimos con esta estrategia. Pensé que había una salida, pero solo era un callejón sin salida disfrazado. | |
| ¡Mucho gusto! This phrase translates to 'much pleasure.' It’s typically used when meeting someone for the first time. Here's how to use it: Hola, ¡mucho gusto en conocerte! ¡Mucho gusto! Espero que podamos trabajar bien juntos. ¡Mucho gusto en verte, María! | |
| maestro A 'maestro' refers to a person who teaches, particularly in a school. The term is gender neutral. Here's how to use it: El maestro de ceremonia está anunciando los siguientes eventos. El maestro está corrigiendo los exámenes. El maestro de yoga es muy tranquilo. | |
| aquí This adverb describes location, pointing to or specifying that something or somebody comes to the place the speaker is referring to. Here's how to use it: Aquí tienes tu café. Aquí come mi perro. Las llaves están aquí. | |
