Frequently Asked Questions

How do I ask someone what their opinion is using this word?

A very common and polite way to ask is: '¿Cuáles son tus opiniones?' (What are your opinions?) or simply '¿Qué opinas?' (What do you think/opine?).

If 'opinión' is feminine, why do people sometimes accidentally say 'el opinión'?

This happens because many Spanish words ending in '-ón' are masculine (like 'el corazón' or 'el camión'). However, 'opinión' is a key exception and is always feminine ('la opinión'). Just remember to use 'las' for the plural form.
