🌀 laberinto = Labyrinth: Spanish keeps the Greek word nearly intact
Laberinto comes from Latin labyrinthus, from Greek labyrinthos, the Cretan palace built by Daedalus to hold the Minotaur. Link the Spanish lab-er-INT-o to English labyrinth: same start, same ending sound, same meaning of a confusing network of paths.
