distract
Significado
desviar la atención, perturbar, distraer, desorganizar
"Distract" es un verbo que significa desviar la atención de alguien o algo, haciendo que no se concentre en lo que debería. Por ejemplo, si estás estudiando y alguien pone música alta, esa música puede distraerte de tu tarea. También puede referirse a situaciones en las que algo inesperado o interesante interrumpe el enfoque de una persona.
💡 A common mistake is to confuse "distract" with "distracted," which refers to the state of being unable to concentrate rather than the action of causing distraction.
