**Tips to remember the word “pasaporte”:**
– Associate the Spanish “pasaporte” with the English “passport.” Notice they both start with “pas-” and end with “-orte” or “-port,” which sounds similar.
– Visualize a port (part of the “passport” word) where people are required to show their “pasaporte” to travel overseas.
– Think of a key phrase: “Pasaporte, please,” to trigger the memory that it’s a travel document one needs to pass through ports (airports, seaports, etc.).

**Explanations:**
– “Pasaporte” is the Spanish word for a travel document issued by a government that certifies the identity and nationality of the holder for the purpose of international travel.

**Other words that mean the same thing:**
– Documento de viaje (travel document)
– Carnet de identidad (identity card – in some contexts can be used for travel)

**Alternate meanings like slang:**
– N/A. “Pasaporte” has no widely recognized slang meanings and is used specifically to refer to a passport.
