peevish


- adjective
- amuado

EN For many months the bronze horseman remained on the peace establishment with his lance elevated in the air, and the worthy old monarch began to repine at the want of his accustomed sport, and to grow peevish at his monotonous tranquillity.
GL Dende había ben meses o cabaleiro de bronce ficaba estantío na postura de paz coa lanza ergueita no ar, e o digno e vello monarca principiou a magoar coa falla da súa acostumado distracción e virou amuado ante a súa tranquilidade monótona.

- desagradable, · desagradábel

EN A stately squadron of snowy geese were riding in an adjoining pond, convoying whole fleets of ducks; regiments of turkeys were gobbling through the farmyard, and guinea fowls fretting about it, like ill-tempered housewives, with their peevish discontented cry.
GL Había un maxestoso escuadrón de gansos brancos que nadaban nun estanque contiguo, ós que seguía toda unha flota de patos. Un rexemento de pavos ía cantando polo patio adiante, e as galiñas de Guinea cacarexaban, coma amas de casa malhumoradas, co seu desagradable berro de descontento.
