Boys in Spain
Niños is Spanish for children, the plural of niño (child or boy).
In English contexts, it appears in borrowed phrases like los niños or in references to El Niño's counterpart weather pattern, La Niña (literally "the girl").
The word retains its Spanish pronunciation and typically its tilde, though English writers sometimes omit it.
