How to use it
Sensible in Spanish means 'sensitive' (emotionally or physically), NOT 'sensible' in the English sense of 'wise' or 'reasonable'. The Spanish equivalent of English 'sensible' is 'sensato'.
Common mistake
'Una persona sensible' means a sensitive person, not a sensible one. Use 'sensato/a' for the English meaning of 'sensible'.
