lottery
Significado
juego de azar, sorteo, billete de lotería, premio
Un "juego de azar" o "sorteo" es un evento en el que las personas compran boletos o números con la esperanza de ganar un premio, que generalmente es dinero. La selección del ganador se realiza al azar, lo que significa que todos los participantes tienen la misma probabilidad de ganar. Este tipo de juego es común en muchos países y a menudo se utiliza para recaudar fondos para causas benéficas o proyectos comunitarios.
💡 A common mistake is to confuse "lottery" with "raffle," which typically involves a specific prize drawing rather than a game of chance.
