captious


- adjective
- celoso

EN Thus there was a perpetual feud and heart-burning between the captain-general and the governor, the more virulent on the part of the latter, inasmuch as the smallest of two neighboring potentates is always the most captious about his dignity.
GL Deste xeito, había unha perpetua querela e xenreira entre o capitán xeneral e o gobernador, máis virulenta por parte do último, dado que a máis pequena de dúas potestades é sempre a máis celosa da súa dignidade.
