The English word for "hombre" is "man." In Spanish, "hombre" refers specifically to an adult male human. It can also extend informally to mean "guy" or "fellow" in English. This term originated from the Latin word "hominem," which meant "man" or "human" more broadly but came to be used specifically as "man" in Spanish.
To clarify the other options:
- "woman" in Spanish is "mujer."
- "human" in a general sense can be "hombre" in older contexts but usually "persona" is used.
- "hunger" in Spanish is "hambre," which sounds somewhat similar but has a very different meaning.
Therefore, the correct translation of "hombre" is "man" in English.
