(el) abolicionista = abolitionist

Pronounced: ah-boh-lee-see-oh-nées-tah
Type: noun
Example: Los abolicionistas eran mayoría en los estados del norte antes de la Guerra Civil.
Translation: The abolitionists formed a majority in the Northern states before the Civil War.

I get a new Spanish word each day. I thought this one is interesting.
