Spanish Word- Nocturno

Author: Johns Smith

Spanish Word: Nocturno

English Word: Evening, night

Pronunciation: knock-tur-noh’

Function: adjective

You may have noticed that the function of the word nocturno as it is described here is an adjective. This is because in Spanish, the word is used not as a noun – but as an adjective to describe how things are happening at night, or how clubs or establishments are still open during the evenings.

Example: Donde está el club nocturne?
