Frequently Asked Questions

Does 'técnicos' only refer to men?

Not necessarily. In Spanish, the masculine plural form is used for a group of men or a mixed group of men and women. If the group is exclusively female, you would use 'técnicas'.

Is 'técnicos' the same as 'ingenieros'?

No. While both work with technology, 'técnicos' usually focus on the practical application and repair, whereas 'ingenieros' (engineers) often focus on design and theory.
