estupendo

/estuˈpendo/ · A2 · adj

fantastic

🏆 estupendo = stupendous with an e- in front and -o at the end

Same Latin root as English stupendous: stupere, to be stunned or amazed. Spanish adds e- before st- (as in estudiante, estación) and ends in -o. Strip the e- and swap -o for -ous to get the English word.
