análisis

/aˈnalisis/ · B1 · noun · m

analysis

🔬 Greek ana (up, back) + lysis (loosening): loosen a whole into its parts

Same Greek root as English analysis and dialysis. Stress the second syllable: a-NA-li-sis, which is why it has an accent. The plural doesn't change: el análisis, los análisis.
