The verb esperar has several meanings, but one is to hope.

Yes Jessica. It also means to wait.
Desesperanza means despair. Desesperar means to lose hope and I think, though I not positive, it means to lose patience.

If you type "des" into the Tomisimo dictionary, it will give you a list of many verbs that begin with "des". Very interesting!

El que espera desespera,
dice la voz popular. ¡Qué verdad tan verdadera! La verdad es lo que es, y sigue siendo verdad aunque se piense al revés. Antonio Machado (1875 - 1939), gran poeta español. |
