  1. Trébol (clubs), espada (spades), corazón (hearts) and diamante (diamonds)


  2. The playing cards are called Italo-Spanish and the four suits are:

    Cups (Coppe/Copas)

    Coins (Denari/Oros)

    Clubs (Bastoni/Bastos)

    Swords (Spade/Espadas)

  3. The four suites are called:

    Oros (golds)

    Copas (cups)

    Espadas (swords)

    Bastos (clubs)

    There are packs of 48 and packs of 40. The packs of 40 exclude the 8s and 9s. Depending on which card game you were playing, you would use one or the other. Packs of 48 typically come with two jokers aswell, as these are also required in certain games.

    The 10th, 11th, and 12th cards are known as 'Sota', 'Caballo', and 'Rey', respectively.
