Pacofinkler, guerrero is a warrior, and I think luchador is applied to an all in wrestler, pelear is to fight someone as in a street brawl etc.

You're right, Ken. I can just imagen a sumo wrestler on the battle field. Paco's wife is going to love this one :- ) - 005faa61, Mar 6, 2011

Hi and welcome to the forum.

All of these words can be found in the dictionary, which is located at the top of this screen.

Luchar (to fight)

en (in)

una (a -- feminine)

Guerra (war)

you can use luchar or combatir do say "fight"

and guerra means war

so depending on your context you could say

luchar en una guerra to fight a war/in a war

lucharon contra (someone) means: to fight with (someone)

if your trying to say to go to war entrar en guerra (con)/(por)

The translator and the dictionary gives us "fight" but for a soldier fighting in a war ,well it's a little more complicated.

"Un luchador" would be the warrior I think..
