el columpio

The Spanish word "columpio" translates to "swing" in English.

Meaning:

1. Primary meaning: A "columpio" is a playground apparatus, usually made of a seat suspended by ropes or chains from a frame, on which people (often children) sit and swing back and forth.
2. More broadly, it can also refer to anything that moves back and forth in a similar oscillating manner.

Parts of the word:

• The word "columpio" does not break down into smaller meaningful parts easily as it is a standalone noun.

Synonyms:

• juego de columpios (swing set)
• sube y baja (a seesaw, related playground equipment but different)

Antonyms:
