bienvenido

/bjembeˈnido/ · A2 · adj

welcome

🚪 bien + venido = well + come: the same two parts as English welcome

Bien means well and venido is the past participle of venir, to come. So it is literally well-come, built just like the English word. The -o ending is for a male; say bienvenida to a female.
