In the Spanish language, we can find words with a very similar writing and the same meaning, both being accepted in the dictionary. That is why it is very common that when we come across these terms, we have doubts about what is the correct way to say them. To help you solve this linguistic question, in the following OneHowTo article we show you a clear example of this and explain in detail how to say unforeseen or improvised.
Unforeseen or unforeseen?
If we search the terms ‘unexpected’ and ‘improvised’ in the dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy (RAE), we verify that both are registered and are used as adjectives to refer to the meaning of “not foreseen”. That is why the two terms They are right and they can be used interchangeably under that meaning.
Examples:
- Problems unforeseen they also have to be solved. / Problems unexpected they also have to be solved.
- Things unforeseen they can be better than the ones we planned to the millimeter. / Things improvised they can turn out better than the ones we planned to the millimeter.
What is the difference?
Despite sharing meaning, the only difference between ‘unforeseen’ and ‘improvised’ is that the term ‘unexpected’, in addition to being an adjective, it can also be use as a noun, and, on the contrary, not ‘improvised’.
