To not succeed in an endeavor.
文化背景
In Spain, 'fracasar' is rarely used for exams. People say 'suspender'. Using 'fracasar' for an exam sounds like a life-altering tragedy. The phrase 'el que no arriesga, no gana' is often used to encourage people who 'fracasan en algo' to try again. Argentines might use 'fracaso' more dramatically in the context of football. A loss for the national team is often headlined as 'Un fracaso histórico'. In many LatAm countries, 'reprobar' is the standard word for failing a class, while 'fracasar' is reserved for projects or life goals.
Don't forget 'EN'
The most common mistake is saying 'fracasar algo'. Always add 'en'.
Use 'el fracaso' for nouns
If you want to say 'The failure was big', use 'El fracaso fue grande'.
