gracia
/ˈɡɾaθja/ · B1 · noun · f
grace
🎁 gracia = grace; plural gracias = thanks, both from Latin gratia (favor)
Latin gratia meant favor or goodwill, giving English grace, grateful and gratis. Spanish stretches it to charm and wit: tener gracia = to be funny, hacer gracia = to amuse. Say thanks in Spanish and you are literally offering graces.
