- dar viravoltas

EN They came ambling and stumbling, tumbling and capering, kilting their gowns for leap frog, holding one another back, shaken with deep false laughter, smacking one another behind and laughing at their rude malice, calling to one another by familiar nicknames, protesting with sudden dignity at some rough usage, whispering two and two behind their hands.
GL Avanzaban marchando e zoupando, dando viravoltas e pinchacarneiros, arremangando os hábitos para faceren o salto da ra, dándose palmadas nas costas sacudidos por unha hilaridade tan falsa como fonda, zoscándose nos cadrís e rindo da súa malicia paifoca, chamándose uns a outros por alcumes familiares, protestando con súbita dignidade de certos tratamentos groseiros, susurrando por parellas coa boca agachada detrás da man.
