The word 'cerrar' means?

  1. to close/shut down

  2. to argue

  3. to sing

  4. to play

The correct answer is: to close/shut down

'Cerrar' in Spanish means 'to close or shut down.' None of the other options accurately capture the meaning of 'cerrar.' While 'to argue' could be translated as 'discutir' or 'pelear,' 'to sing' is 'cantar' and 'to play' is 'jugar.' Therefore, the correct answer is 'to close or shut down.'
