Usage Note

Infravalorar means to assign less value or importance to something than it deserves. The seed partOfSpeech is listed as 'adjective', but this is an error: it is a regular -ar verb. The past participle infravalorado functions as an adjective (un trabajo infravalorado – an undervalued job). It is the antonym of sobrevalorar (to overvalue). The reflexive infravalorarse means to sell oneself short.
