luído
EN This wind pressed his grey shirt against his chest so that he noticed --in this new mood of comprehension-- how the folds were stiff like cardboard, and unpleasant; noticed too how the frayed edges of his shorts were making an uncomfortable, pink area on the front of his thighs.
GL Este ventiño apegáballe a camisa gris ó colo e, así, gracias á súa nova maneira de pensar, decatouse de que as enrugas da prenda estaban tesas coma a cartolina e eran moi desagradables; tamén notou que os bordos luídos do pantalón lle estaban facendo unha incómoda e rosada rozadela na parte de diante das coxas.
