jungle


- noun
- selva

EN Since they had not so far to go for light the creepers had woven a great mat that hung at the side of an open space in the jungle; for here a patch of rock came close to the surface and would not allow more than little plants and ferns to grow.
GL As rubideiras, dende o momento en que xa non tiñan que andar á procura do sol, teceran unha especie de farrapeira que colgaba nun lado do clareiro da selva; aquí, un leito de rochas case que apuntaba sobre a tona e non deixaba medrar máis ca uns fentos e plantas cativeiras.

- xungla

EN This was the backbone of the island, the slightly higher land that lay beneath the mountain where the forest was no longer deep jungle.
GL Isto era o espiñazo da illa, o terreo un pouco máis elevado, pé da montaña, onde a mesta xungla deixaba de selo para converterse en bosque.
