tematico

Tematico is the Spanish adjective meaning related to a theme or organized around a central subject. The feminine form is temática and the adverbial form is temáticamente. It derives from tema, “theme,” with the adjectival suffix -tico, and is widely used in Spanish and Portuguese contexts.

In cultural and media contexts, tematico describes content such as exhibitions, collections, programs, or editions that are structured around a specific topic. For example, una exposición tematica or una revista temática indicates work centered on a particular subject. In education, temático refers to teaching approaches that integrate learning around overarching themes, as in enseñanza temática or aprendizaje temático. In research, the term appears in phrases like análisis temático, used to identify and interpret themes in qualitative data.

In information organization and archiving, tematico can signal theme-based grouping within catalogs, databases, or metadata, indicating that items are categorized primarily by subject rather than by format or author. The term is commonly translated into English as “thematic.”
