trauma
/ˈtɾauma/ · B1 · noun · m
injury
🩹 Same word as English trauma: from Greek traûma, meaning wound
Spanish keeps the Greek word for a wound unchanged, just like English. Say it with a tapped r and a clear 'ow' sound: TRAU-ma. It is masculine despite ending in -a: el trauma, like el problema and el tema, which are also Greek.
