Notas de uso
- Use 'guardia' for people (e.g., security guard) or abstract duty. For objects (e.g., fender), use 'paraurti' or 'parafango'.
- Common mistake: Don’t say 'una guardia' for a single guard—use 'un/una guardia' (gender depends on the person).
- In compounds like 'guardia del corpo', it’s always feminine, even for male bodyguards.
