géiser is a masculine noun used to refer to a boiling spring.

To form the plural, use los géiseres.

/ˈxeiseɾ/

The Spanish word géiser is borrowed from English, which in turn took it from the Icelandic name Geysir for a specific hot spring.
The accent mark in géiser is used to maintain the stress on the first syllable, as the word would otherwise be stressed on the penultimate syllable according to standard Spanish rules.
While the spelling geyser exists in Spanish, it is an unadapted borrowing that lacks the accent mark used in the more standard géiser.
