sounding-box
noun
caixa de resonancia
EN His arbour, as he called the reeking outhouse which he shared with the cat and the garden tools, served him also as a sounding-box: and every morning he hummed contentedly one of his favourite songs: O, twine me a bower or Blue eyes and golden hair or The Groves of Blarney while the grey and blue coils of smoke rose slowly from his pipe and vanished in the pure air.
GL O seu cenador, como lle chamaba á afumada casiña que compartía co gato e as ferramentas do xardín, servíalle tamén de caixa de resonancia: e cada mañá cantarolaba alegremente unha das súas cancións favoritas: O, twine me a bower ou Blue Eyes and Golden Hair ou The Groves of Blarney mentres as guedellas azuis e grises de fume erguíanse lentamente da súa pipa esvaecéndose no aire puro.
