Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if 'pasas' means raisins or the verb 'to pass'?
Context is key! If 'pasas' is used with articles like 'las' (las pasas) or in a culinary context, it means raisins. If it follows a pronoun like 'te' (te pasas) or is followed by another verb (pasas haciendo), it is the verb 'pasar' (you pass/spend time).
