Cultural Tip
In many Spanish‑speaking countries the word 'seguro' can refer to car, home, health, or travel insurance. When speaking formally or with a professional, you might say 'póliza' (policy) or 'cobertura' (coverage) instead of the more casual 'seguro'. Also, 'cosas' is informal; for formal contexts use 'pertenencias' or 'bienes'.
