apt
adjective
propenso
EN And, resting, looking from one to the other vaguely, the old question which traversed the sky of the soul perpetually, the vast, the general question which was apt to particularize itself at such moments as these, when she released faculties that had been on the strain, stood over her, paused over her, darkened over her.
GL E, ó repousar, mirando vagamente dun sitio para outro, a vella cuestión que atravesaba perpetuamente o ceo da súa alma, a ampla e xeral cuestión que era propensa a concretarse en momentos coma este, cando se afrouxaban as facultades que estiveran en tensión, pairou sobre ela, detívose, e proxectou a súa sombra.

quen (de)
EN He, however, was apt to ride his hobby his own way; and though it did now and then kick up the dust a little in the eyes of his neighbors, and grieve the spirit of some friends, for whom he felt the truest deference and affection; yet his errors and follies are remembered "more in sorrow than in anger," and it begins to be suspected, that he never intended to injure or offend.
GL Sen embargo, foi quen de levar aquel pasatempo ó seu xeito, e aínda que sempre trataba de ensarillar ós seus veciños e de darlles pena ós seus amigos, polos que sentía o máis sincero respecto e estima, séguense lembrando os seus erros e loucuras "con máis tristeza ca cólera", e agora comeza a sospeitarse que nunca tentou prexudicar nin ofender a ninguén.

suficiente
EN His appearance, therefore, is apt to occasion some little stir at the tea-table of a farmhouse, and the addition of a supernumerary dish of cakes or sweetmeats, or, peradventure, the parade of a silver tea-pot.
GL Polo tanto, a súa presencia era suficiente para que o invitasen a tomar un té nunha granxa calquera, e inmediatamente se engadía unha prata de pasteis ou de doces, e ás veces ata sacaban a teteira de prata.
