carro
/ˈkaro/ · B1 · noun · m
cart
🚗🛒 carro = car + o: same Latin root (carrus, a wagon) as English car and cart
Latin carrus meant a wheeled wagon. English kept it as car, cart and carry; Spanish kept it as carro. So the word covers both the old cart and the modern automobile. Roll the double rr strongly: with a single r, caro means expensive.
