Which of the following verbs translates to 'to fight'?

  1. Padecer

  2. Pelear

  3. Pagar

  4. Parar

The correct answer is: Pelear

The correct translation of 'to fight' is indeed captured by the verb that means "pelear." In Spanish, "pelear" specifically refers to a physical or verbal confrontation or struggle between individuals or groups, aligning perfectly with the English word 'to fight.' In contrast, the other verbs refer to different actions. "Padecer" translates to 'to suffer,' indicating an experience of pain or hardship; "pagar" means 'to pay,' relating to the exchange of money for goods or services; and "parar" means 'to stop,' which involves halting an action or movement. Thus, "pelear" stands out as the only appropriate choice for conveying the concept of fighting.
