tumba
/ˈtumba/ · A2 · noun · f
grave
🪦 tumba = tomb with an a: both from Latin tumba, Greek tymbos (burial mound)
Spanish tumba and English tomb are the same word: Late Latin tumba, from Greek tymbos, a burial mound. English dropped the final vowel and silenced the b; Spanish kept both, so say every letter: TOOM-bah. Feminine: la tumba.
