People & Society Money

Origin: From Latin inventarium, from invenire (to find, to discover).

Usage Note

Inventario is the list of goods or stock held by a business or organization, and also the formal process of counting them (hacer un inventario = to take stock). In literary or poetic use it can mean a comprehensive enumeration of things. The English 'inventory' is a true cognate sharing the same Latin root, so the meaning transfers directly.

Examples

"Hicimos el inventario del almacén."

Natural Translation

We did the warehouse inventory.
