humor

/uˈmoɾ/ · A2 · noun · m

temper

humor = English humor with a silent h; in Spanish it mostly means mood

From Latin humor, fluid: the four bodily humors were once thought to set your temperament. Spanish kept that sense, so estar de buen humor means to be in a good mood. Say it oo-MOR, stress on the last syllable.
