How do you say I'm a junior in spanish?

Answer 1

It depends on how you use it. For "junior as in "Joe Jr.", you would use "hijo". "Joe Smith hijo" would be "Joe Smith junior".

If your "junior" to someone at work, then it would be "tener un rango inferior al de alguien".

To be junior in age would be "ser mas joven que alguien" or "años menor".

Answer 2

This is a tougher question to answer than one would think. There is no direct translation to the word "Junior" in realSpanish. "Junior" has been absorbed in Latin America, especially areas where English is common. It is "Spanglish" (engañol). It is commonly spelled and pronounced the same in both languages. Sometimes it is spelled "Júnior" and pronounced "HOO-nee/orr"

The reason there is no direct translation to the English word "Junior" is because

1)There is no "Junior" title in Spanish names.

Spanish names consist of one or two given names + Father's family name + Mother's Family Name. So even if a person is named after his father the names would still be different since the mothers' maiden names are, most likely, different.

2)There is no "Junior" partner in Spanish.

In Spanish some one is a Subordinate, minor, or younger partner. Socio menor.

3) There is no word that carries the meaning of a third year in high school or college in Spanish.

In Spanish a person is "in the third year". (el el tercer año)

4) Since there is no "Junior" in names, the term "Junior" to reference a younger person does not exist in Spanish.

In Spanish one would call some one kid, son, boy, or youngster. (Chico, hijo, niño, joven)

Answer 3

In Spanish schools, there is no conception of "freshman, sophomore, junior, senior". This is because their school system is quite a lot different then the American school system.

It honestly depends on what country you are in. Some of the Spanish-speaking countries do not even have middle schools, therefore making their years in High School even longer (sometimes starting as young as 7th grade). Some countries refer to high school as 'Secondaria' while others use the same word to mean middle school.

Honestly, there is no easy way to translate that since you would have to know what country you are referring to and how their school system is set up. I've often found that I have to explain the school system to Spanish people (IE: That there's a elementary, middle, and high school and how many years each one has) before I can tell them that I'm in my third year of high school.

Answer 4

The three levels of pre-college education are: elementary = primaria; junior high = secundria; and high school = preparatoria.

Answer 5

'I am...' = 'Yo soy....'

but 'Senior' needs more specification: senior citizen? not junior? school senior?

Please specify.

Answer 6

You say, "el hermano menor." The 'h' is silent, with an accent on the 'a' in 'hermano' and the 'o' in 'menor.'
