jugar
/xuˈɡaɾ/ · A1 · verb
to play
🎲 From Latin iocari, to jest: same root as joke and juggler
Latin iocus (jest) gave English joke, jocular and juggler, and Spanish jugar and juego. The Latin i became Spanish j, said like a rough h: hoo-GAR. Rolling dice is play and risk at once, which covers both senses.
