What is the English equivalent of 'encontrar'?

to meet
to find
to search
to discover

The correct answer is: to find

'Encontrar' means 'to find' in English. While 'to meet' (A) can sometimes be used as a synonym for 'to find', it has a different connotation and is not the best equivalent in this context. 'To search' (C) is incorrect because 'encontrar' is an action, not a state of endeavor. 'To discover' (D) also has a different meaning, as it typically refers to finding something that was previously unknown or unseen. Therefore, the best English equivalent for 'encontrar' is 'to find' (B).
