QUÉ SIGNIFICA LUCK EN INGLÉS
Suerte
La definición de suerte varía según el contexto filosófico, religioso, místico o emocional de quien la interpreta; Según el clásico diccionario de Noah Webster, la suerte es "una fuerza sin propósito, impredecible e incontrolable que moldea los acontecimientos favorable o desfavorablemente para un individuo, grupo o causa". Sin embargo, el autor Max Gunther lo define como "eventos que influyen en la vida de uno y están aparentemente fuera de su control". Cuando se piensa en un factor fuera de su control, sin tener en cuenta la voluntad, la intención o el resultado deseado, hay por lo menos dos sentidos que la gente suele significar cuando usan el término, el sentido prescriptivo y el sentido descriptivo. En el sentido prescriptivo, la suerte es un concepto sobrenatural y determinista de que hay fuerzas que prescriben que ciertos eventos ocurren mucho de la manera en que las leyes de la física prescriben que ciertos eventos ocurren. Es el sentido prescriptivo que la gente quiere decir cuando dice que "no cree en la suerte". En el sentido descriptivo, la gente habla de suerte después de acontecimientos que encuentran afortunados o desafortunados, y quizás improbables.
definición de luck en el diccionario inglés
