polvo

You might know polvo means dust in Spanish. For example, if your house needs cleaning, you could say ¡Hay mucho polvo! (There's a lot of dust!).

However, polvo can also be used in other practical ways. Think about powders you might use in cooking or makeup. For instance, talco en polvo is talcum powder.

It's good to remember this word for everyday situations involving small, dry particles.
