Did you know?

  • In Spanish, you cannot use temporada to describe a 'seasoning' of food, as that uses the verb sazonar or the noun sazón.
  • While temporada refers to a specific period of time, it is not used to describe the four meteorological seasons like 'summer' or 'winter'. For those, you must use the word estación.
  • The word estación (used for meteorological seasons) shares the same word as 'station', such as estación de tren for a train station.
