Comparamos el campo de visión y el aumento.

Comparamos is the first-person plural form of the verb comparar (to compare) in the present indicative.

So it means:

• we compare
• sometimes, depending on context, it can also look like we compared, because the preterite form for nosotros is spelled the same with regular -ar verbs

In this sentence, it is normally understood as we compare because that is the most natural reading without extra context.

Because the infinitive is comparar, which is an -ar verb. Regular -ar verbs use these present-tense endings:

• yo -o
• tú -as
• él/ella/usted -a
• nosotros/nosotras -amos
• vosotros/vosotras -áis
• ellos/ellas/ustedes -an

So:

• comparar → comparamos

Spanish usually uses the definite article more often than English does. Here, el campo de visión means the field of vision or the field of view.

Even when English might sometimes omit the, Spanish often keeps it:

• el campo de visión
• el aumento

So the sentence naturally says Comparamos el campo de visión y el aumento.

Because campo de visión is a specific expression meaning field of vision or field of view.

• campo = field
• de = of
• visión = vision

So literally it is field of vision.
Using only visión would just mean vision or sight, which is more general and not the same technical idea.

De often means of in Spanish.

So:

• campo de visión = field of vision
• literally: field of vision

This is a very common Spanish structure: noun + de + noun.

Other examples:

• casa de campo = country house
• gafas de sol = sunglasses
• centro de salud = health centre

The accent mark shows where the stress goes: vi-SIÓN.

Without the accent, Spanish stress rules would suggest a different pronunciation. The written accent makes the stress clear and correct.

So you pronounce it roughly like:

• bee-see-ON in Spain-style pronunciation
• with the stress on the last syllable

Also, the accent mark does not change the meaning here in a special way; it mainly marks the correct stress.

It can mean increase in some contexts, but here it most likely means magnification.

That is common in scientific or optical contexts, especially when talking about microscopes, binoculars, lenses, or similar things.

So in this sentence:

• el campo de visión = the field of view
• el aumento = the magnification

Spanish words often have a broader range than a single English translation, so context is important.

Spanish often uses one article before the first noun and then connects the second noun with y if both are parallel items in the sentence.

So:

• el campo de visión y el aumento

is completely natural.

You could sometimes repeat the article for emphasis or clarity:

• el campo de visión y el aumento

But in this exact sentence, using el once before each noun is already what is happening, because each noun phrase has its own article:

• el campo de visión
• el aumento

That is the normal structure.

This is the normal Spanish word order:

• verb
  • object

So:

• Comparamos = we compare
• el campo de visión y el aumento = the field of view and the magnification

Spanish often allows more flexibility than English, but this neutral order is the most common and natural here.

Yes, potentially. Comparamos can be either:

• present indicative: we compare
• preterite: we compared

For regular -ar verbs, the nosotros form is written the same in those two tenses.

How do you know which one it means? From context.

For example:

• In a lab report describing a procedure step by step, it could mean we compared
• In a general explanation or instruction, it could mean we compare

Without context, both are possible.

Because Spanish often leaves out subject pronouns when the verb form already makes the subject clear.

• Comparamos already tells you the subject is we

So:

• Comparamos el campo de visión y el aumento
• Nosotros comparamos el campo de visión y el aumento

Both are possible, but the first is more natural unless you want emphasis or contrast.

For example:

• Nosotros comparamos el campo de visión y ellos comparan la nitidez. = We compare the field of view, and they compare the sharpness.

Y usually means and.

In this sentence it is pronounced like a vowel sound similar to ee:

• el campo de visión y el aumento

So it links the two things being compared:

• the field of view
• the magnification

A useful note: before words beginning with an i or hi sound, Spanish often changes y to e:

• padres e hijos = parents and children

But here that does not happen because aumento starts with an a sound.

In standard Peninsular Spanish, a rough guide would be:

• kom-pa-RA-mos el KAM-po de bee-SYON ee el ow-MEN-to

A few helpful pronunciation points:

• c in campo sounds like a hard k
• v in visión is pronounced like b in Spanish
• sión is stressed at the end: vi-SIÓN
• y sounds like ee
• au in aumento is a diphthong, so it starts with an ow/au sound

That said, pronunciation varies by region, even within Spain.

Yes, very natural. It sounds like something you might hear in:

• a science lesson
• a microscope demonstration
• an optics explanation
• a lab report
• an educational video

It is concise and neutral in tone, which fits technical or academic Spanish well.
