Antonyms
humilde
Feeling or showing pride. This can refer to a positive feeling of satisfaction and respect for oneself or others' achievements, qualities, or possessions. It can also describe someone who has an excessively high opinion of themselves, leading to arrogance or haughtiness. While proud is its closest direct translation, 'orgulloso' captures a broader range of meanings in Spanish, from dignified self-respect to negative conceit, heavily depending on context.
