Answer 1

Actually, there is a word for karma in Spanish. Guess what....it is spelled exactly like the English spelling. ... but has a masculine article. ...el karma

Hope this helps...Viejito

• Hola viejito! Thanks a lot! I wonder why it's masculine? It's a man's world I guess. :-) - Margherite May 31, 2012
• Magherite, remember that all nouns are either masculine or feminine in gender. Gender is not the same as sex in linquistics. - Jubilado May 31, 2012

• Karma is related to the consequences of the action. In ancient Sanscrite it means literally action. According to Buddhism and Hinduism karma pre-determinates the destiny, but the two don't really overlap. - miliard May 31, 2012
• Thank you for that tidbit Miliard. The Buddhism and Hinduism version helps with something I'm in the middle of - Margherite May 31, 2012
