capacitar

EN He was extremely urbane, and the young American, who said nothing, reflected upon that profundity of Italian cleverness which, enables people to appear more gracious in proportion as they are more acutely disappointed.
GL Era extremadamente cortés e ela, que non dicía nada, reflexionaba sobre esa fondura do intelecto italiano que capacita á xente para aparentaren máis galantes canto máis agudamente disgustados se atopan.

permitir

EN Now it was this latter peculiarity in his disposition, of which Kates ingenuity enabled us one fine day, not long after our interview in the dining-room, to take a very unexpected advantage, and, having thus, in the fashion of all modern bards and orators, exhausted in prolegomena, all the time at my command, and nearly all the room at my disposal, I will sum up in a few words what constitutes the whole pith of the story.
GL Esta peculiaridade do seu carácter sumada ó enxeño de Kate permitiunos, non moito tempo despois da miña conversa co meu tío no salón, acada-lo que nos propoñiamos. E entón, despois de esgotar coma os modernos bardos e oratores o meu tempo en prolegómenos, pasarei a contarlles en poucas palabras o miolo da historia.
