Usage Note
Pelea refers to a physical or verbal fight, typically between individuals rather than armies (batalla or guerra). The verb pelearse (reflexive) means to fight or to fall out with someone — se pelearon los hermanos (the brothers had a fight). In everyday speech it can describe a heated argument as much as a punch-up.
Examples
"Tuvieron una pelea en la calle."
Natural Translation
They had a fight in the street.
