Descontó

Descontó is a Spanish word that translates to "discount" or "it discounted" in English. Its meaning and usage depend on the context in which it appears.

In a commercial or financial setting, "descontó" refers to a reduction in price or a deduction. For example, a store might offer a "descuento del 10%" which means a 10% discount. It can also refer to the act of discounting a bill or a financial instrument, reducing its present value.

The specific meaning is usually clear from the surrounding words and the situation.
