humillación
/umiʝaˈθjon/ · B2 · noun · f
humiliation
😳 humillación = humil(de) + -ación; from humus, Latin for ground: brought low
Humillación comes from Latin humus, meaning earth or ground. To humiliate is to bring someone down to the ground. Same root as English humble and humus. The -ación ending turns the action into a noun, like English -ation.
