| regresar The word 'regresar' in Spanish means 'to return' in English. It is a commonly used verb in Spanish to indicate the action of going back to a previous place or state. For instance, one could use 'regresar' when talking about coming back from a trip or returning an item to a store. Here's how to use it: No puedo regresar a ese lugar. Deberías regresar a estudiar. Ellos decidieron no regresar. | |

| agricultura ecológica The term 'agricultura ecológica' is Spanish and translates to 'organic agriculture' in English. Organic agriculture is a method of farming that does not use synthesized chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Instead, it relies on natural ecological processes and cycles, and this is reflected in its alternative name 'ecological agriculture'. This method of agriculture promotes and enhances biodiversity, biological cycles, and soil biological activity to maintain and increase long-term soil fertility, and it is believed to be more sustainable. Here's how to use it: Los productos de agricultura ecológica son saludables. La agricultura ecológica protege los recursos naturales. Mi aspiración es convertirme en un experto en agricultura ecológica. | |
| paisaje desolador The Spanish term 'paisaje desolador' translates to 'desolate landscape' in English. It's typically used to describe an area or scene that is barren or empty, often evoking a sense of bleakness or desolation. This phrase could be used in various contexts - from literal descriptions of physical environments, such as a desert or a war-ravaged city, to more metaphorical uses in literature and conversations to convey a sense of emotional emptiness or despair. Here's how to use it: El fuego dejó un paisaje desolador en el bosque. La escasez de agua está creando un paisaje desolador en el desierto. La guerra ha convertido la ciudad en un paisaje desolador. | |

The word can be used in various contexts, such as having 'control' over a situation (tener control sobre una situación), a remote 'control' (control remoto), or being in 'control' of a vehicle (tener el control de un vehículo). It is pronounced slightly differently, with the emphasis on the last syllable - conTROL. Here's how to use it: | |
