Bags & Accessories

Did you know that etiqueta has two unrelated meanings: price tag or label in a store, and etiquette or formal dress code in a social context. Una cena de etiqueta means a black-tie dinner, while la etiqueta del precio means the price tag.

Note that bolsa goes well beyond shopping bag. It also means stock exchange (la bolsa de valores) and, in many countries, purse or handbag. La bolsa by itself in financial news always refers to the stock market.
