Questions & Answers about El registro muestra una tasa de más de cincuenta.
Why do we use más de here instead of más que?
Does registro mean the same kind of record as a world record?
No, it doesn't. Registro refers to a log, registry, or a physical/digital record of data. If you want to talk about an athletic achievement or breaking a world record, Spanish uses the loanword récord.
Why is the verb spelled muestra and not mostra?
The infinitive is mostrar (to show), which is an o-to-ue stem-changing verb in the present tense. Since el registro is a third-person singular subject (it), the o changes to ue in the conjugated form.
What does tasa mean? Is it related to a coffee cup?
Tasa spelled with an s means a rate, measure, or fee (like a tax or interest rate). A coffee cup is a taza spelled with a z. In Latin America, both words are pronounced exactly the same, so you have to rely on context to know which one is being used.
