Office – la oficina

(Pronounced oh-fee-thee-nah)

To remember that office is pronounced oh-fee-thee-nah (oficina) in European Spanish, use the following mnemonic:

It's not a regular office, it's got free coffee, theatre and nachos (oficina).

Oficina is feminine, so it's la oficina. Imagine what it might be like working in an office full of wild ladies.
