Okay, so today I wanted to figure out what “caro” means in Spanish. I’ve heard it a few times and was always a little confused, so I thought, “Let’s just figure this out!”

My Little Experiment
First, I grabbed my phone and opened up a translation app. I typed in “caro” and…BAM…it said “expensive”. That seemed about right, but it’s always good to double-check, you know?
Next, I jumped onto a couple of online dictionaries. Just to be sure. I checked a few different ones to see if they all agreed.
- The first one confirmed: “caro” means “expensive” or “dear”.
- Another one added that it can also mean “beloved” in certain contexts. Ooh, interesting!
- And yet another showed some example sentences, like “Este coche es muy caro” (This car is very expensive). That helped a lot!
So, after all that, I feel pretty confident. “Caro” generally means “expensive,” but it can also mean “dear” or “beloved,” depending on how it’s used. It’s all about context, I guess!
It was a simple experiment, but it’s something I’ve been meaning to look up for a while. Now I know! And maybe this little explanation will help someone else out there, too.
