Both words translate as SHARP, and some objects are both PUNTIAGUDO y PUNZOCORTANTE.
PUNTIAGUDO describes an object with a sharp point (punta). Ejemplos: un tornillo, un clavo, un gancho.
PUNZOCORTANTE describes an object with a sharp edge (filo). Ejemplos: una navaja, un cuchillo.
TIJERAS (scizzors) pueden ser tanto puntiagudas como punzocortantes.
LOS PUNZOCORTANTES = medical sharps. Apoyar el podcast 15:08 A lot of time and money goes into every lesson we publish, and we could not do it without the support of our members.

I would also like to thank Elizabet Cortez, my Spanish teacher from Guatemala, and Gloria Becerril, my Spanish teacher from Mexico. I consulted with both of them to put together the Spanish for this lesson. In this lesson, you will hear the voice of Eliza from Guatemala.
