/menˈsaxe/ · A1 · noun · m
message
✉️ mensaje = message with a Spanish j: men-SA-heh
Both come from Old French message, from Latin missus (sent), the root of mission and missile. Spanish turns the -age ending into -aje, as in garaje, viaje, pasaje. The j is a throaty h, and the noun is masculine: el mensaje.
