C1 noun

resquício

When you see or hear the word resquício, think of it as a small leftover piece or a faint sign of something that used to be there but is mostly gone. Imagine a crumb of cake left on a plate after everyone has eaten, or a small mark on the wall where a picture used to hang. It's like a memory, a trace, or a tiny part that remains.

For example, if there was a big fire, a resquício could be a small piece of burnt wood that wasn't completely destroyed. Or, if a strong wind blew through, you might find a resquício of a leaf stuck in a corner. It's not the whole thing, but just a little bit that tells you something was once there.
