Exit

---


Word for today - covering words that look familiar but have an "o" or an "a" at the end.  Meanings aren't even close at times.

Exit or Exito

While 'exit' is a way out and is posted near exterior doors, here the same sign would say 'salida'. 

 Exito means Success, and  Exitado means Excited.

When you start speaking Spanish, people will laugh when you silly questions like, "where's the success?" or "does this building have emergency success?"

Food for thought...
