What does 'interesar' mean in English?

  1. To travel

  2. Interest

  3. To walk

  4. To drive

The correct answer is: Interest

The correct answer is indeed related to the word "interest." In Spanish, "interesar" means "to interest." It is a verb that describes the action of something being of interest or appeal to someone. For example, when you say, "Me interesa" it translates to "It interests me" in English, indicating that something captures your attention or curiosity. The other options do not relate to the meaning of "interesar." "To travel," "to walk," and "to drive" are separate actions that are expressed by different verbs in Spanish, such as "viajar," "caminar," and "conducir," respectively. Thus, these options are not aligned with the definition of "interesar."
