	Spanish Word of the Day Wednesday, April 29, 2015 Yesterday's Word - Previous Words - Help competencia, noun rivalry; competition The ‘false friend’ that we will be looking at today is competencia. Be careful not to use competencia as a translation for competence (although, by the way, competente does mean competent). Competencia can mean rivalry: la competencia entre dos hermanos the rivalry between two brothers or competition: una campaña para descreditar a la competencia a campaign to discredit the competition If you actually want to say competence, use either of the Spanish words capacidad or aptitud. In LAm competencia could also be used in this sense as in dudaron de su competencia como professional/médico/testigo Content By © HarperCollins Publishers Ltd 2006. All rights reserved.
