tourist

turista — tourist

🧳📷 tur + ista: the one on a tour, like art-ista or dent-ista

Spanish -ista works like English -ist (artista = artist), so turista is simply tourist. Like artista, it is the same word for a man or a woman: el turista, la turista. In Mexico, la turista is also slang for traveller's stomach upset.
