noun poo-blee-SEES-tah Rare

Also means

advertising professional

Usage Note

Publicista is a common-gender noun — el publicista (male) and la publicista (female) — so the article signals sex. In Spain it typically refers to someone working in advertising (publicidad), not a PR publicist in the Anglo-American sense; for public-relations work Spanish uses relacionista or agente de prensa.

Examples

"La publicista diseñó una campaña brillante."

Natural Translation

The publicist designed a brilliant campaign.
