profesión
/pɾofeˈsjon/ · B1 · noun · f
calling
💼 Same word as English profession: from Latin professio, to declare publicly
Latin profiteri meant to declare openly, as in profess. A profesión was first the vows you declared, then the work you openly claimed as yours. Spelling: one f, one s, and -ción becomes -sión here. Feminine, so it's la profesión.
