Which word is the correct translation of "to improve"?

  1. Molestar

  2. Matar

  3. Mejorar

  4. Morir

The correct answer is: Mejorar

The correct translation of "to improve" is "mejorar." This verb comes from the Spanish word "mejor," which means "better." In various contexts, "mejorar" is used to express the action of making something better or enhancing its quality, whether it be skills, situations, or conditions. For example, one might say "Quiero mejorar mis habilidades en español," meaning "I want to improve my skills in Spanish." The other options do not convey the meaning of improvement. "Molestar" means "to bother" or "to annoy," indicating a negative interaction rather than an enhancement. "Matar" translates to "to kill," and "morir" means "to die," both of which relate to the end of life rather than any form of improvement. Thus, "mejorar" is the only word that accurately represents the idea of enhancing or making progress.
