To remember the Spanish word “venta” as it refers to a “sale,” you can associate it with the English word “vendor,” someone who sells things, as they share the Latin root “vendere,” which means “to sell.”

Explanations:
– “Venta” means the action of selling something, or the event where items are being sold. It can refer to an ongoing sale or the actual instance of selling something.
– It can also refer to the place where the sale is happening, similar to a shop or a store.

Other words that mean the same thing:
– “Liquidación” can be used when referring to a clearance sale.
– “Rebaja” is often used for a discount or a sale in terms of reduced prices.
– “Comercio” may also relate to the act of selling and buying, though it’s more commonly referred to as trade or business.

Alternate meanings/slang:
While “venta” does not have widely recognized slang meanings, it can be used colloquially to imply that something got sold out or was a good deal.

Examples of sentences:
– “Hoy hay una gran venta en la tienda de electrodomésticos.” (Today there’s a big sale at the appliance store.)
– “La venta de coches ha aumentado este año.” (Car sales have increased this year.)
– “Pasaremos por la venta para comprar pan y queso.” (We will stop by the small shop to buy bread and cheese.)
