What does the verb 'ocurrir' mean?

  1. To happen

  2. To stop

  3. To fight

  4. To sponsor

The correct answer is: To happen

The verb 'ocurrir' translates to "to happen" in English, making this the correct interpretation. It is commonly used in both everyday language and in various contexts to indicate events or incidents that take place. For example, one might say, "El accidente ocurrió a las tres," which means "The accident happened at three." The other options provide meanings that are distinct from 'ocurrir.' "To stop," "to fight," and "to sponsor" pertain to entirely different actions and concepts. Hence, they do not align with the meaning of 'ocurrir.'
