Hola spanish learners 😀


In today's lesson, I'm going to teach you some basic vocabulary about "art".

So, let's start by translating the word "Art" into the correct Spanish writing form.

  • Art = Arte


I will use the "=" sign. In Spanish we call this sign "equals" ("Igual" in Spanish) or "the same" ("Lo mismo" in Spanish).


Let's get started.


There are seven arts = Hay siete artes; Existen siete artes

Architecture = Arquitectura[edit | edit source]

  • Profession: Architect = Arquitecto (Male) o Arquitecta (Female)

  • House = Casa
  • Home = Hogar

Sculpture = Escultura[edit | edit source]

  • Profession: Sculptor = Escultor (Male) o Escultora (Female)
  • To sculpt = Esculpir
