conferencia
/konfeˈɾenθja/ · B1 · noun · f
conference
🎤 Like English conference: Latin con- (together) + ferre (to bring)
A conferencia brings people and ideas together. The ending -encia matches English -ence, as in paciencia (patience) and ciencia (science). It is feminine: la conferencia. In Spanish it often means a single talk or lecture, not just a big event.
