šWhat is the difference between peldaƱo and escalera and
Synonym for peldaƱo First of all, I have to say that in spanish we generally use the word "escalera" to mean both "stairway/staircase/stairs" and"ladder". We rarely use a different word to distinguish between them. There exists a word, "escalerilla" to mean "ladder", but it is seldom used, it's not common. "escalĆ³n" means each step on a staircase. "peldaƱo" means each step on a ladder. Althought there is a difference between the two terms, they're often used interchangeably if you are no to be that specific about it.
