Translation examples
It was into this courtyard so unnaturally lustrated that the Carvers from the Outer Dwellings were to pour like a dark and ragged tide, bearing their heavy wooden carvings in their arms or upon their shoulders, or when the works were too weighty for a man to sustain he would be aided by his family - the children running alongside, barefooted, their black hair in their eyes their shrill excited voices jabbing the heavy air as though with stilettos.
Era allí, en aquel patio tan artificialmente lustroso, donde los Tallistas de las Moradas de Extramuros se derramarían como una marea oscura y harapienta, cargando sobre los hombros o en los brazos sus pesadas tallas de madera o, si la obra pesaba demasiado para un solo hombre, ayudados por sus familias. Los niños corretearían alrededor, descalzos, con los negros cabellos sobre los ojos, y sus voces agudas y excitadas cortarían el aire como estiletes.
