react
Significado: To respond to something that has happened or been said
React means to respond or behave in a particular way as a result of something. It often implies an emotional or instinctive response rather than a planned one. In chemistry, substances 'react' when they undergo a chemical change together. 'React to' is the common construction for describing responses to events or stimuli.
