José, this is not an automatic translator, but a forum for both grammar and vocabulary, and there are all sort of questions, so you need to make yours clearer next time, like you have done this time: "I want to know the meaning of...".

Fact means "hecho", and both words come from Latin Factum (In Spanish lost the F, and the "ct" changed to "ch", like "factual", "hacer" and many other verbs. "In fact" means "de hecho", and it sounds the same in both languages.
