Occupations

Want to say what people do for a living in English? These quizzes give Spanish speakers the job titles that come up constantly, from everyday roles to ones made of more than one word.

English Job Titles for Spanish Speakers

Each quiz matches an English occupation to its Spanish meaning. You will translate familiar roles like doctor, barber, and firefighter, then add a second round with jobs such as pilot, photographer, and taxi driver, including a few that are made up of more than one word.

These quizzes are aimed at beginners and give Spanish speakers a real head start, since many job names look a lot like their English cousins. The less obvious ones, like the word for a farmer, are the ones worth a closer look.

English Job Titles with Audio Pronunciation

Saying a job title clearly matters in interviews and introductions, so every quiz includes audio pronunciation of the English words. Hearing each one helps you say what you do, or ask what someone else does, with confidence.

Did You Know?

Many job words are close cousins across the two languages, so terms for roles like actor and editor give you an easy starting point. That overlap means you already know more English job titles than you might think.

Some Spanish job words ending in -ista stay exactly the same for a man or a woman, so only the small article in front changes, as in el dentista and la dentista. That detail saves you from learning two versions of the same word.

How the Quizzes Work

Each quiz is short, about five minutes, and you can repeat both sets whenever you want the titles to stick. A few rounds is enough to make these everyday words feel familiar. Ready to talk about work? Open the free interactive English quizzes and start with occupations.
