Chapter 1.7 of our Intermediate Spanish e-book course is dedicated to Technology Vocabulary. Technology is an integral part of our everyday lives and therefore learning vocabulary related to it in whatever language you are learning is essential. In this chapter, we'll explore a variety of technology-related terms and phrases that are commonly used in the Hispanic world.

To start, let's focus on some general terms that are essential for any discussion of technology. The term "tecnología" is, of course, the Spanish word for "technology". Other general terms include "ordenador" (computer), "teléfono móvil" (cell phone), "cámara" (camera), "internet", "redes sociales" (social media), "software", "hardware", "aplicación " (application) and "e-mail" (e-mail).

Now, let's dive into some more specific terms. If you're talking about computers, you might need to use words like "teclado" (keyboard), "ratón" (mouse), "pantalla" (screen), "altavoces" (speakers), "impresora" (printer) and " escáner" (scanner). If you are discussing cell phones, useful terms might include "llamada" (call), "mensaje" (message), "contactos" (contacts), "batería" (battery), "cargador" (charger) and "señal" ( sign).

If you're talking about the internet, it might be useful to know words like "browser" (browser), "web page" (web page), "link" (link), "descargar" (download), "load " (upload), "contraseña" (password), "red wifi" (wifi network) and "virus". When it comes to social media, important terms include "perfil" (profile), "publicación" (post), "seguidores" (followers), "comentarios" (comments), "me gusta" (likes), "etiqueta" ( tag) and "block" (block).

In addition, you may also encounter situations where you need to discuss technology in a professional context. In this case, words like "procesador de texto" (word processor), "hoja de calculus" (spreadsheet), "presentación" (presentation), "base de datos" (database), "código" (code), "programación" (programming), "red" (network) and "seguridad informatica" (information security) can be useful.

Finally, it's important to remember that technology is always changing, and new terms are constantly being introduced. So it's always a good idea to stay up to date with the latest vocabulary. Also, remember that different Hispanic regions may use different terms for the same thing, so always be open to learning new words.

We hope this chapter on Spanish Technology Vocabulary has been helpful to you. Keep practicing and using these words in your daily conversations to become more fluent in this aspect of the Spanish language. See you in the next chapter!
