Translation for "rotary movement" to spanish
Translation examples
That morning we didn’t know that Llaque had been a law student during the time of Odría’s revolution, he thinks, that he’d been a victim of the police attack on San Marcos, that he’d been tortured and exiled to Bolivia, and that in La Paz he’d been in jail for six months, that he’d returned clandestinely to Peru: only that he looked like a little bird, that morning as his frail voice summarized the history of the Party for them and they watched him as he moved his thin yellow hand in a repeated rotary movement, as if he had a cramp in it, and kept watching the courtyard and the street out of the corner of his eye.
Esa mañana no sabíamos que Llaque era estudiante de Derecho cuando la revolución de Odría, piensa, no que había caído en el asalto de la policía a San Marcos, no que lo habían torturado y desterrado a Bolivia y que en La Paz estuvo preso seis meses, no que había vuelto clandestinamente al Perú: sólo que parecía un pajarito, esa mañana, mientras su vocecita les resumía a historia del Partido y lo veían mover su delgada mano amarilla en un movimiento rotativo e idéntico, como si tuviera calambre en la mano, y mirar de soslayo al patio y la calle.
