convention


- noun
- convención

EN Sitting opposite him could she not see, as in an X-ray photograph, the ribs and thigh bones of the young man's desire to impress himself lying dark in the mist of his flesh --that thin mist which convention had laid over his burning desire to break into the conversation?
GL Sentada enfronte del, ¿seica non podía ver, coma nunha radiografía, as costelas e os fémures do desexo que aquel mozo tiña de impresionar, xacendo escuros na néboa da súa carne, esa néboa leviá que a convención deitaba sobre o seu desexo ardente de meter baza na conversa?
