What does 'la primavera' mean in English?

The winter
The spring
The fall
The summer

The correct answer is: The spring

The correct answer is "the spring" because "la primavera" is the Spanish term specifically referring to the season of spring, which is the time of year characterized by the blossoming of flowers and the renewal of nature following winter. In Spanish, seasons are often gendered, and since "primavera" is a feminine noun, it is preceded by the article "la." This context is essential to understanding the translation accurately. The other choices refer to different seasons: "el invierno" means winter, "el otoño" translates to fall, and "el verano" means summer. Each of these terms has a distinct meaning that does not relate to "la primavera," reinforcing that "the spring" is the precise translation.
