Spanish for winter sports

Winter Sports in Spanish

Modern Terms Often Imported

By , About.com Guide
Most Spanish-speaking countries aren't known for the winter sports, even though some of the world's best skiing, even if less developed than elsewhere, can be found in some of them. As a result, many of the Spanish words for winter sports have been imported, so if you're ever skiing in the Andes of South America or in the Pyrenees of Spain, don't be surprised to hear statements or phrases like "hacemos snowboard" and "el halfpipe."Such linguistic adaptations shouldn't be surprising. After all, English words such as "ski" and "slalom" come from Norwegian. Importing from other languages is one of the most common ways for a languages to grow, and Spanish is no exception.
Don't be surprised, then, to see imports from English and other languages in the following list of winter sports. Pronunciation of such words generally more or less follows that of the originating language with some variations. For example, the h of hockey may not be silent, and the word may end up sounding something like the English "hokey."
Here are the Spanish words for some of the most common winter sports such as those you would find at the Winter Olympics:
  • biathlon — biatlón
  • bobsleigh — bobsleigh
  • cross-country skiing — esquí de fondo, esquí nórdico
  • curling — curling
  • downhill skiing — esquí alpino
  • figure skating — patinaje artístico (sobre hielo) (a skate is un patín)
  • hockey — hockey (sobre hielo)
  • luge — luge
  • short-track skating — patinaje en pista corta, patinaje short-track
  • skeleton — skeleton, esquéleton
  • slalom — eslalon
  • skiing — esquiar (a ski is un esquí)
  • ski jump — salto de esquí
  • snowboarding — snowboard, surfear en nieve, surf blanco (a snowboard is un snowboard, una plancha para nieve or una tabla para nieve)
  • speed skating — patinaje de velócidad (sobre hielo)

Helping Emilia D'Cuire school for the special need kids (Honduras)

   

Mountains Of Love is a 501c3 non-profit organization specifically supporting special needs children in La Ceiba, Honduras.  Emilia d'Cuire is a special needs school, the only one in Honduras, and welcomes children from all walks of life - many are orphans or living with extended family and neglected in the day to day life of the family.  There is little financial support in Honduras for any school of this kind and they rely on their own creativity to raise funds, but with our support MORE IS POSSIBLE!

Mountains Of Love supports these childrewn with the essentials of everyday living which are often taken for granted.  This includes clean water, food, shelter and clothing whilst also expanding their possibilities in special needs education, physical therapy and medical needs.  






   
   

A small group from the Vail Valley in Colorado has been supporting this very special school in many ways over the last 15 years. The school relies on outside resources as there is no government funding.







If you would like to help Mountains of Love support this school, please contact us. EVERY dollar donated to Mountains of Love goes directly to the school.
