yo soy Español. La traducción es serendipia, y significa una casualidad, una curiosa coincidencia.

Serendipity means a "happy accident" or "pleasant surprise"; specifically, the accident of finding something good or useful without looking for it.


Translation:Serendipity

  1. serendipia
  2. descubrimiento fortuito de algo muy bello
  3. descubrir algo por casualidad.

Keeping in mind this is a very rare word in Spanish, i think it's better use a sentence like number 2 or 3 for translated.

Best wishes!
