noun
calafrío
EN His prayer, addressed neither to God nor saint, began with a shiver, as the chilly morning breeze crept through the chink of the carriage door to his feet, and ended in a trail of foolish words which he made to fit the insistent rhythm of the train; and silently, at intervals of four seconds, the telegraph-poles held the galloping notes of the music between punctual bars.
GL A súa pregaria, que non ía dirixida a Deus nin a ningún santo, comezaba cun calafrío do aire que penetraba pola rañura da porta e chegaba aos seus pés, e remataba cunha ladaíña de palabras parvas que Stephen fixera rimar co ritmo insistente do tren; e caladamente, en intervalos de catro segundos, os postes de telégrafo sostiñan as notas galopantes da música entre compases exactos.

estremecemento
EN He thought it odd, and with a little perfunctory shiver, as if in deference to a seasonal presumption that the night was chill, he lay down again and went to sleep.
GL Considerouno estraño e, cun pequeno e espontáneo estremecemento, como en sinal de respecto a unha presunción de que nesa época do ano a noite ía ser xélida, deitouse de novo e volveu durmir.
