Using "heat" as a noun ???...

Question

I am trying to use the word "heat" as a noun ??? Eample: "Use heat to create vapors to remove paint...." The word "heat" /calor, as an adjective just insn't sounding right !!??

Answer 1

You don't say in what language you are trying to do this. Spanish or English?

Heat (verb) "I'm going to heat up my dinner."

Heat (noun) "This summer heat is killing me."

Answer 2

In Spanish:

"Tengo que calentar mi cena" (I have to heat up my dinner)

"Este calor me molesta" (This heat bothers me)

Answer 3

"Use heat to create vapors to remove paint...."

Calentar = is the verb to heat

por ejemplo: Tengo que calentar mi cena = I have to heat up my dinner

Caliente = is the adjective

Quería un baño caliente = she wanted a hot bath

Calor = is the noun = heat

So , using your example: " Use* calor para crear los vapores para quitar pintura"

= Use heat to create vapours in order to remove paint

The imperative mood is used in the 3rd person singular for commands and instructions

I hope that this helps
