Learn Spanish (Latin America): Uso un traje en el trabajo.

Yes, the verb usar generally means "to use." However, in Spanish, it is very common to use usar to mean "to wear" when talking about clothing, accessories, or perfume. You can also use the verb llevar for this, but uso un traje is a perfectly natural way to say "I wear a suit."

Is uso one of the irregular "yo" (I) verbs taught in this lesson?

Actually, no! While verbs like hacer (to do) have irregular "yo" forms like hago, the verb usar is completely regular. To say "I wear," you just drop the -ar ending and add -o to get uso. It gives you a nice comparison to the tricky irregular verbs you are learning right now!

Why does the sentence say en el trabajo instead of just en trabajo ("at work")?

In English, we skip the word "the" and just say "at work." Spanish is stricter about using articles with places. When talking about work as a general physical location or a destination, you almost always need the definite article el (the). So, you literally say "in the work" (en el trabajo).

Does the word en mean "in" or "at"?
