precaución
/pɾekauˈθjon/ · B1 · noun · f
precaution
⛑️ pre + caución = before + caution; Spanish -ción matches English -tion
From Latin praecautio: prae- (before) + cavere (to beware). It's the same word as English precaution, with -tion turned into -ción. Like every -ción noun, it's feminine: la precaución.
