– Think of a “band” of musicians wrapping around like a “banda” in Spanish.
– Associate “banda” with musical bands or groups, as “a band plays together, una banda toca junta.”
– You can relate it to the English word “bandanna,” since both can be connected to groups (gangs often use bandannas to represent their group, similar to a musical group).

Explanations:

Other words that mean the same thing:

Alternate meanings like slang:
– “Banda” in some Spanish-speaking regions can refer to a group of friends, similar to “gang” or “crew” in English.
