inhale


- transitive verb
- inhalar

EN When any thing that was read or related displeased him, he was observed to smoke his pipe vehemently, and to send forth short, frequent and angry puffs; but when pleased, he would inhale the smoke slowly and tranquilly, and emit it in light and placid clouds; and sometimes, taking the pipe from his mouth, and letting the fragrant vapor curl about his nose, would gravely nod his head in token of perfect approbation.
GL Sempre que se lía ou falaba de algo que non lle gustaba, observaban cómo fumaba a súa pipa con rabia, dando curtas, frecuentes e violentas chupadas; en cambio, cando si lle gustaba, inhalaba o fume lentamente e con calma, expulsándoo en forma de nubes suaves e lixeiras, e ás veces sacaba a pipa da boca e deixaba que aquel vapor balsámico se lle coase polo nariz, asentindo con entusiasmo como sinal da súa total conformidade.
