@james williams. Your translation of "gracia" as "natural ability" would be incorrect even based on the definitions you provided. In English, "natural ability" describes an ability which comes naturally, or is innate, as opposed to learned. Gracia, or grace, is the ability to perform an action with beauty and ease, in a manner that feels natural. With much practice, I may learn to dance gracefully, or elegantly, even if I have little "natural ability" to do so. Also, translating gracia as "natural ability" entirely loses the connotation of beauty and elegance, as I may have a "natural ability" at math, which has nothing to do with grace. Just wanted to clarify on that point since you opted to be technical and seem to be interested in accuracy of the translation.
