💡 Grammar Points
Plural of Nouns Ending in -ón
To make 'visión' (singular) plural, you add '-es' and drop the written accent mark: visión -> visiones. This pattern applies to many nouns that end in '-ón' (e.g., canción -> canciones).
❌ Common Pitfalls
Confusing 'Visión' and 'Vista'
Mistake: "Using 'visión' to mean the physical ability to see (e.g., 'Tengo mala visiones')."
Correction: Use 'vista' for physical eyesight ('Tengo mala vista'). 'Visiones' refers to mental images or viewpoints.
⭐ Usage Tips
Context is Key
If you are talking about a company's future plans, use 'visiones.' If you are talking about a character seeing ghosts, also use 'visiones.' The context makes the meaning clear.
As a verb form, visiones means 'that you view/screen,' often used in a wish, command, or necessity.
