character – el carácter
(Pronounced kah-rahk-tehr)
To remember that character is pronounced kah-rahk-tehr (carácter) in Spanish, use the following mnemonic:
The clown character arrived in the big top on a car roof rack and managed to tear (carácter) his baggy trousers as he jumped off.
Carácter is masculine, so it's el carácter. Imagine an elephant cartoon character.
