distort


- transitive verb
- distorsionar

EN Man and wife entered into a solemn compact, now, to never mention the great news to any one while the relative lived, lest some ignorant person carry the fact to the death-bed and distort it and make it appear that they were disobediently thankful for the bequest, and just the same as confessing it and publishing it, right in the face of the prohibition.
GL Marido e muller fixeron entón un pacto solemne polo que, mentres que aquel parente de seu vivise, non lle falarían daquela nova estupenda a ninguén por medo a que algún ignorante fixese chegar aquel feito ata o leito do moribundo, distorsionándoo e facendo que parecese que agradecían o legado con rebeldía; que sería exactamente o mesmo que confesalo e publicalo facendo caso omiso da prohibición.
