title: [Possibilities, opportunities, equalizing allowances: a commentary on the translation of the term odds].
abstract: The present commentary discusses several translations of the term odds into Spanish, and argues in favor of some translations and against others. The need for more precision in the use of terminology, that is often used in misleading ways, both in English and in Spanish, is emphasized.
