- adjective
- furtivo

EN Jack himself shrank at this cry with a hiss of indrawn breath; and for a minute became less a hunter than a furtive thing, ape-like among the tangle of trees.
GL O mesmo Jack quedou arrepiado por este bruído e o seu alentar soou coma un asubío. Por un instante, foi menos un cazador ca un ser furtivo, semellante a un mono, na maraña das árbores.

- esquivo

EN There was a slight, furtive boy whom no one knew, who kept to himself with an inner intensity of avoidance and secrecy.
GL Había tamén un rapaz fraco e esquivo que ninguén coñecía, pechado en si mesmo, mergullado no afastamento e no segredo.
