Discutir is a word that could trip you up. If a Spanish-speaking friend says that two people están discutiendo and you think it means ‘discussing’, you might be surprised at how loud they’re talking! In fact, it often means to argue or to have an argument:
No discutamos por cosas de poca importancia. Let’s not argue about unimportant things.
Poco después de discutir con su padre, se marchó. Soon after having an argument with his father, he left.
We hope to see you again the week for another word!
