"WORK" OR "JOB" ¿CUÁL ES LA DIFERENCIA? Many Spanish speakers get confused with these two words and I have come to the conclusion that the main reason why is because in Spanish you have just one word: "trabajo". The problem with this is that in English you can not use these two words interchangeably! So, when someone Spanish says: "Every day I go to the job" this is unfortunately incorrect. The correct version is: "Every day I go to work". The main distinction between the two words is that the word "job" is mostly used to talk about your position or role in a company or organisation whereas "work" is more general. Hope that helps!

Existe una palabra que quizás podría equipararse y es "empleo".
