mortgage
The Spanish word 'hipoteca' translates to 'mortgage' in English. A mortgage is a legal agreement by which a bank or similar organization lends you money to buy a house, etc., and you pay the money back over a particular number of years. You can also use the mortgage to buy other kinds of property. If you fail to make these payments, the organization can take the property from you. Similarly, 'hipoteca' in Spanish would describe the same legal and financial scenario.
