asombroso

desacougante

EN For a time, which seemed so long that the world grew gray with age and sin, and the haunted forest, having fulfilled its purpose in this monstrous culmination of its terrors, vanished out of his consciousness with all its sights and sounds, the apparition stood within a pace, regarding him with the mindless malevolence of a wild brute; then thrust its hands forward and sprang upon him with appalling ferocity!
GL Durante un momento, que de tan longo pareceu que o mundo se tornara gris de vello e polos pecados, e que a fraga enmeigada, acadado o seu propósito nesta monstruosa sucesión dos seus terrores, se esvaecera da súa consciencia con todas as súas imaxes e sons, a aparición permaneceu a menos de un paso de distancia, xulgándoo coa malevolencia irracional dunha besta salvaxe; entón, ¡estendeu as mans cara adiante e saltou sobre el cunha ferocidade desacougante!

espantoso

EN These things, with the thoughts of the air and grass above, with memory of dear friends who would fly to save us if but informed of our fate, and with consciousness that of this fate they can never be informed -- that our hopeless portion is that of the really dead -- these considerations, I say, carry into the heart, which still palpitates, a degree of appalling and intolerable horror from which the most daring imagination must recoil.
GL Estas cousas, xunto cos desexos do aire e a herba de enriba, coa lembranza de amigos queridos que voarían para salvarnos se soubesen do noso destino, e a conciencia de que nunca poderán sabelo, que a nosa fortuna é a dos realmente mortos; estas consideracións, digo, levan o corazón, que aínda palpita, a un grao de horror espantoso e intolerable ante o que a imaxinación máis ousada retrocedería.
