delicate
🥚🌸 delicado = delicate, the same Latin word deliciae; just add an -o
Spanish delicado and English delicate both come from Latin delicatus, meaning pleasing or dainty, from deliciae, delight. The two words are cognates: swap English -ate for Spanish -ado and you have it. It also covers a person who is sensitive or a fussy eater.
