pliability


- noun
- flexibilidade

EN He had, however, a happy mixture of pliability and perseverance in his nature; he was in form and spirit like a supple-jack --yielding, but tough; though he bent, he never broke; and though he bowed beneath the slightest pressure, yet, the moment it was away --jerk! he was as erect, and carried his head as high as ever.
GL Sen embargo, el posuía unha feliz mestura de flexibilidade e persistencia por natureza. Era igual ca unha cana, tanto física coma psicoloxicamente: flexible pero resistente. Aínda que se dobrase, nunca rompía, e aínda que se inclinase ante a máis mínima presión, en canto pasaba o momento ¡zas!, xa estaba outra vez tan recto, e coa cabeza tan ergueita coma sempre.
