The Spanish name for the Catholic prayer that begins with "Hail Mary" is which?

• A. Ave María
• B. Padre Nuestro
• C. Gloria
• D. Salve Regina

Answer: (A)

The idea is recognizing how well-known Catholic prayers are named in different languages. The Hail Mary is known in Spanish as Ave María, which is the direct Spanish version of the prayer’s title. It starts with the familiar line in Spanish, “Dios te salve, María, llena eres de gracia,” and the name used for this prayer in Spanish matches that greeting. The other options correspond to different prayers: Padre Nuestro is Our Father, Gloria is a separate doxology, and Salve Regina is a different Marian prayer. So Ave María is the correct Spanish name for the prayer that begins with “Hail Mary.”
