The Spanish phrase 'varias veces' translates to?

  1. several times

  2. so many times

  3. every week

  4. for a while

The correct answer is: several times

The phrase 'varias veces' translates directly to 'several times' in English. The word 'varias' means 'several' or 'various,' indicating a number of instances, while 'veces' means 'times.' Together, they convey the idea of multiple occurrences of something. The other choices do not accurately represent this meaning. 'So many times' would suggest a greater emphasis on quantity than 'several,' 'every week' implies a regular recurring event, and 'for a while' indicates an indefinite period of time rather than the frequency implied by 'varias veces.' Thus, the translation 'several times' is indeed the most appropriate.
