vengador

/benɡaˈdoɾ/ · B2 · noun · m

avenger

🦸‍♂️⚔️ vengador = venga(r) + -dor, the one who 'venge'-s, like a-VENGE-r

Spanish vengar means to avenge, and -dor marks a doer, like English -er. Vengador is the one who does the avenging. The English avenger shares the same Latin root, vindicare, so 'venge' is in both words.
