Today’s Spanish word of the day is “razón”.
It’s a feminine noun meaning “reason”, both in the sense of the reason why you do something, as well as when referring to sanity and rationality.
It can also be used when discussing whether someone is right or wrong. The phrase “tener razón” (literally “to have reason”) means “to be right”. Therefore, if you want to say someone is right about something, you can say “tienes razón”, which literally translates as “you have reason”.
