Triste - sad

Triste - sad.

Triste - sad
En frase:

Estoy triste porque el clima está cambiando.
I am sad because the climate/weather is changing. 

Another confusing word in Spanish is el tiempo. El tiempo can mean the time or the weather. I used the term clima = climate as a reference to the atmosphere and the changing season.

Por ejemplo : for example :

Hace buen tiempo.
The weather is good. (It makes good weather) is a more accurate translation but that is how it is said when referring to the weather or el tiempo

El tiempo can also be a measure of time or reference to time. Por ejemplo:

No tengo tiempo.
I don't have time.

¿Qué hora es?
What time is it? (What hour is it?) is how you ask the time. 
  
Yes, Spanish can be a bit confusing at times. Hope this helps and didn't overly confuse you. If you are confused, don't be, in time it will start to make sense.
