couple, pair
Beginner Noun Feminine
🔊
Pronunciation
/ˈpara/
💡
Cultural Note
'Para' also means 'steam' in Polish — a fun coincidence that some Poles joke about ('gorąca para' can mean both 'hot couple' and 'hot steam'). When Poles say 'dobrana para' (well-matched couple), it's a compliment meaning two people fit perfectly together.
