Cloud – la nube
(Pronounced noo-bay)
To remember that cloud is pronounced noo-bay (nube) in Spanish, use the following mnemonic:
A huge cloud came over and there was a violent storm – then they saw that a new bay (nube) had formed where the shore had been washed away.
Nube is feminine, so it's la nube. Imagine a cloud that is shaped like a lady:
