Alternative forms
- binvenido, byenvenido
Etymology
Inherited from Old Spanish bien venido, inherited from Vulgar Latin *bene venītus, presumably a calque of a Frankish term, derived from Proto-Germanic *wiljakwemô (“a welcome guest or arrival”), from which many modern Germanic forms descend, such as English welcome. By surface analysis, bien (“well”) + venido (“come”).
Adjective
bienvenido (Hebrew spelling ביינב׳ינידו, feminine bienvenida, masculine plural bienvenidos, feminine plural bienvenidas)[1]
- welcome; welcomed
