sharpen
transitive or intransitive verb
afiar
EN Once a week, up and down the country, they get together to de-rust, mend, sharpen, oil and finally pack the tools, as good as new (and sometimes better because steel in old tools is often of superb quality) for dispatch to Africa.
GL Unha vez por semana, en todo o país, reúnense para lixaren, repararen, afiaren, engraxaren e empaquetaren as ferramentas, que quedan coma novas (mesmo mellores cás actuais, pois o aceiro de antes era de excelente calidade), antes de as enviaren a África.
