If you’re a space nut like me and you love everything related to it, then you’ll definitely want to read this article, where I’m going to show you some spaceship vocabulary in Spanish for you to use in your next discussion about Star Wars with your Spanish friends!
Ever since I first laid my eyes on a wookie I’ve been a huge Star Wars fan. I love everything about it, especially the fact that it explores space in a way that I wish we could explore nowadays. The immensity of the universe is something that makes me feel both tiny and overwhelmed but also incredibly curious and intrigued about the little we know about it.
I recently watched one of the latest Star Wars movies in Barcelona, Spain. I was staying for a month in the area, and the movie had just come out, so due to my incredible lack of patience, I could not wait until I got home to watch it.
Before going to the cinema, and already knowing that Spanish people translate everything on television and cinema, I added to my Spanish vocabulary a few words that I thought might be helpful during the session. Boy, oh boy, what a great decision! Every minute there was astronave here and planeta there, but luckily I already knew what those words meant!
After the movie, the first thing I did was get this article ready because if I needed to explore a few words about space and spaceships, maybe other people would also research it! This way, by reading this article, you’ll discover some new words about space in Spanish that you’ll be able to understand during your next Star Wars movie in Spanish and explain and discuss with your friends afterward! Ready? Vámonos!
