descubrimiento
/deskubɾiˈmjento/ · B1 · noun · m
discovery
🔍🗺️ des + cubrir + miento = un-cover-ing, like English discover
Cubrir means to cover, and des- undoes it, so descubrir is to uncover or discover. The suffix -miento turns the verb into a noun, the way -ment does in English: descubrimiento is the act of discovering, or the thing discovered.
