vegetariano

vegetarian

adjective beh-heh-tah-RYAH-noh Rare

Usage Note

Vegetariano functions as both adjective (menú vegetariano, vegetarian menu) and noun (soy vegetariano, I'm a vegetarian). The stricter vegano (vegan) excludes all animal products. In Spanish-speaking countries, ovo-lacto vegetariano is sometimes used explicitly to include eggs and dairy, since dietary practice varies widely.

Examples

"Busco un restaurante con opciones vegetarianas."

Natural Translation

I'm looking for a restaurant with vegetarian options.
