Frequently Asked Questions
How can I tell if 'tratas' means 'you treat' or 'trafficking'?
Look at the words around it. If it follows 'tú' (you) or starts a question about an action, it's the verb 'you treat/try.' If it is preceded by 'las' (the plural feminine article) or is followed by 'de personas,' it is the noun 'trafficking' or 'deals.'
