"Par" una pregunta de definición

Question

There is a question in my homework that uses the spanish word par. As I understand it, par means an equal amount. If someone explained their schedule and said they worked 1 hour, 3 days a week, could you describe their schedule of work as par?

Answer 1

No, that doesn't make sense. You can say "trabaja un par de horas cada semana" if you want to say he works a couple hours a week or you can say that the hours he works each day "son igual."

Answer 2

It also means "pair" like "un par de zapatos" ("a pair of shoes"). I don't quite understand your question....1 hour compared to what? Please explain.

• If the reference is to un par de horas, look at a couple of hours. - kmaakheru Oct 4, 2011
