récord

/ˈrekoɾd/ · B1 · noun · m

record

🏆 Same as English record, with the stress on the first syllable: RÉ-cord

Borrowed from English record, itself from Latin recordari, to remember: a record is a feat worth remembering. Spanish keeps the English spelling but adds the accent on the first e, and says batir un récord for to break a record.
