quadroon


- noun or adjective
- mulato

EN The quadroon nurse was looked upon as a huge encumbrance, only good to button up waists and panties and to brush and part hair; since it seemed to be a law of society that hair must be parted and brushed.
GL A neneira mulata resultáballes un grande atranco; só servía para abotoar blusas e bombachos e para peitealos e facérlle-la raia, dado que segundo parecían impo-los regulamentos sociais, o pelo debía ir coa raia e peitearse.
