negociación
/neɡoθjaˈθjon/ · B1 · noun · f
bargain
🤝 Latin neg-otium = not-leisure, so business, and then haggling
Romans called free time otium, and work was nec-otium, meaning not-leisure. English negotiation comes from the same root. Spanish spells it with a c (negoci-), and like most -ción words it is feminine: la negociación.
