Logro

Logro is a noun in Spanish that denotes an achievement, accomplishment, or attainment—the successful result of attempting to obtain something or complete a goal. The term typically refers to a concrete outcome or milestone and can describe personal, professional, academic, or collective successes. It is widely used across contexts such as education, sports, business, and culture to highlight noteworthy results.

Etymology and usage notes: Logro derives from the verb lograr, meaning to achieve or obtain. The noun form is used to name the result of that action. In many Spanish-speaking countries, it functions as a flexible neutral term that can refer to modest gains or significant breakthroughs, e.g., “logro académico,” “logro profesional,” or “logro histórico.”

Examples of usage:

- “Completar la carrera fue un logro personal.”

- “El equipo celebró su primer logro en la liga.”

- “El proyecto representa un gran logro para la comunidad.”

Related terms and distinctions: While often translated as “achievement” or “accomplishment” in English, logro emphasizes the attainment rather than the effort alone. In some contexts, equivalent phrases such as “éxito,” “consecución,” or “resultado” may be used depending on focus and register.
