Frequently Asked Questions
Is 'económicamente' the same as 'barato'?
No. 'Barato' means 'cheap' (price), while 'económicamente' refers to the general state of finances or doing something in a way that saves money.
Why does it have an accent if the stress is at the end of the word?
In Spanish, adverbs ending in -mente are special; they keep the written accent of the original adjective they were built from.
Can I use 'financieramente' instead?
Yes, they are often interchangeable, though 'financieramente' is more specific to banking and investment, while 'económicamente' is broader.
