English to Spanish Other Other ROPES AND KNOTS
Desearía saber si existe un término exacto para esta palabra. Esta es la definición en el original:

"Two crossing points created by an extra twist in a loop".
"Once the two adjacent parts of the rope cross, a bight turns into a loop; a further twist creates a couple of elbows.

Muchas gracias.

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Luximar Arenas Petty

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

codo

Nudo dinámico
La cuerda del dinámico que va a sufir mayor tensión tiene que coincidir con el lado del mosquetón que no tiene gatillo. El mosqueton tiene que ser del tipo HMS, con el codo interno de la curva amplia lo más suave posible. Es un nudo que tiende a rizar la cuerda.
