ópera
/ˈopeɾa/ · B1 · noun · f
opera
🎭🎶 Same as English opera; Latin opera = work, so an opera is the great work
Spanish took ópera from Italian, where it meant a work or labour, from Latin opus. The accent sits on the first syllable: Ó-pe-ra, not o-PE-ra. The written accent mark tells you where the stress goes.
