Agujero

The Spanish word 'agujero' (pronounced ah-goo-HEH-ro) primarily translates to 'hole' in English. It refers to an empty space or opening in a solid object, surface, or enclosure. The size and shape of the 'agujero' can vary greatly, ranging from a tiny puncture to a massive cavity. Figuratively, it can also represent a deficit, deficiency, or a gap in knowledge, understanding, or a process. The context is crucial in understanding its specific meaning. 'Agujero' often implies an unintended or undesirable void, though sometimes it can be intentional, like a drainage hole.
