salvación
/salbaˈθjon/ · B2 · noun · f
redemption
🛟 salv- = save, as in salvage + -ción = -tion: the act of saving
From Latin salvatio, from salvare, to save, and salvus, safe. Spanish -ción matches English -tion, so salvación maps straight onto salvation. Related words: salvar (to save), salvavidas (lifebuoy, literally save-lives).
