Translation examples

touch on the shoulder

Pobre Harry, qué iluso, qué típico, dejarse provocar por una sonrisa que no era para él y caer rendido al instante. Ella contestó: «No seas ridículo», dándose media vuelta para que no le tocara torpemente el hombro desnudo; entonces él puso ese mohín obstinado que tan bien conocía y empezó el juego, como tantas otras veces antes del teatro o de una cena, innumerables veces: el mal humor, la irritación, la tensión antes de salir de casa siquiera.
Poor Harry, how vain, how typical, provoked by a smile that was not for him into instant adoration. She had said: "How ridiculous you are," turning from him, so that he should not touch her bare shoulder with his clumsy hands, and at once his mouth had set in that grumpy, obstinate line she knew so well, so that they set out to the play, as they had done to other plays and to other suppers, times without number, with moods ill-tuned and tempers frayed, putting an edge upon the evening before it had begun.
