Translation examples
He rocked forward in his chair and in a single spasm released the contents of his stomach onto the floor: the soup and salad, the pickled beets, the mashies and the ham.
Osciló hacia adelante en la silla y en un solo espasmo liberó el contenido de su estómago sobre el suelo: la sopa y la ensalada, la remolacha en vinagre, el puré y el jamón.
Despite the nervous feeling in his body, the smell of warm food made him hungry-the Depo gave him such a voracious appetite it was a wonder he wasn’t heavier than he was-and he filled his tray as he moved down the line, his mind savoring the thought of the meal to come: a bowl of minestrone, salad with croutons and cheese, mashies and pickled beets, a slab of ham with a ring of dried-out pineapple sitting on it like a citrus tiara.
Pese a los nervios, el olor a comida caliente le dio hambre (el Depo le provocaba un apetito tan feroz que era un milagro que no estuviera más gordo), y llenó la bandeja mientras seguía la cola. Su mente saboreaba los manjares que le esperaban: un plato de minestrone, ensalada con picatostes y queso, puré de patatas y remolacha en vinagre, una loncha de jamón con un círculo de piña deshidratada encima, como si fuera una tiara cítrica.
