bañar
/baˈɲaɾ/ · B2 · verb
to bathe
🛁 bañar = bath-ar: the ñ sounds like 'nya', so 'ba-nyar' ≈ 'bath-near'
Say it as 'ba-NYAR', which echoes 'bath'. Related to Spanish baño (bath, bathroom), from Latin balneum. Reflexive form bañarse means to bathe oneself, as in bañarse en el mar (to swim or bathe in the sea).
