corporativo

corporate

adjective kohr-poh-rah-TEE-boh Rare

Origin: From Latin corporativus, from corpus ('body').

Usage Note

Corporativo describes anything relating to a corporation or collective body: cultura corporativa ('corporate culture'), imagen corporativa ('corporate image'). In Spanish administrative law it also applies to professional bodies (colegios corporativos). The feminine form is corporativa; it should not be confused with the English false-friend nuance — in Spanish it has no pejorative flavour by default.

Examples

"La empresa renovó su identidad corporativa este año."

Natural Translation

The company renewed its corporate identity this year.
