What is the meaning of "evitar" in English?

  1. To enjoy

  2. To avoid

  3. To spend

  4. To work

The correct answer is: To avoid

"Evitar" translates to "to avoid" in English, which means to keep away from or prevent something from happening. This verb is often used in contexts where one wishes to steer clear of negative situations or undesirable outcomes. For example, one might say "evitar conflictos," meaning "to avoid conflicts." The other choices provided do not reflect the meaning of "evitar." The verb related to enjoying something would be "disfrutar," while "pasar" relates to spending time, and "trabajar" means to work. Each of these verbs has distinct meanings that do not align with the action of avoiding, which solidifies "to avoid" as the correct translation for "evitar."
