code

noun KOH-dee-goh Less Common

Usage Note

Código covers legal codes (código civil, código penal), postal codes (código postal), and programming or security codes (código fuente, código QR). In computing contexts it is used exactly like English 'code'. It should not be confused with clave, which refers more to a password or cipher key.

"El código postal de Madrid es 28001."

Natural Translation

The postal code of Madrid is 28001.
