∙ 13y agoIt is the past participle of the verb nevar, 'to snow.' It means, "snowed," as in, "We were snowed[nevados] in." The 'a' ending in nevada refers to a thing or person that is feminine that is "snowed," which in Spanish could have been a mountain [la montaña] a mountain range [la cordillera] or land [la tierra]. A more satisfying interpretation of nevada [to the English speaking ear] is "snow-covered."
