audición

audition

noun ow-dee-SYOHN Rare

Also means

hearing (sense)

Usage Note

Audición covers two senses: the sense of hearing (pérdida de audición, hearing loss) and a performing audition (hacer una audición, to audition). Context makes the meaning clear. In medicine it appears in prueba de audición (hearing test). The plural audiciones shifts stress naturally, so no written accent is needed.

Examples

"La cantante pasó su audición con gran éxito."

Natural Translation

The singer passed her audition with great success.
