What does "Quitar" mean in English?

  1. To recognize

  2. To try

  3. To take away

  4. To belong

The correct answer is: To take away

The word "quitar" translates to "to take away" in English. It typically refers to the action of removing or getting rid of something. For example, if you were to "quitar la mesa," it means to clear or take away the table. This verb is commonly used in various contexts where something is being removed or extracted, making "to take away" the most accurate translation from the provided options. The other choices do not accurately convey the meaning of "quitar." Recognizing something refers to identifying or acknowledging it, trying something means making an effort to do it, and belonging relates to ownership or association with something. None of these capture the essence of removing or taking away that "quitar" specifically denotes.
