campeón

champion

noun kahm-peh-OHN Less Common

Usage Note

Campeón is masculine; the feminine form is campeona. The plural campeones drops the written accent because the added syllable makes the word naturally penultimate-stressed. It applies equally to sports champions and general 'best-in-class' winners, as in campeón del mundo for world champion.

Examples

"El equipo es campeón nacional."

Natural Translation

The team is the national champion.

Literal Translation

The team is champion national
