(bulbosamente) lleno de frases rítmicas. Explanation: riff (rf) n. Music. A short rhythmic phrase, especially one that is repeated in improvisation. A clever or inventive commentary or remark: “Those little riffs that had seemed to have such sparkle over drinks... look all too embarrassing in cold print” (John Richardson). http://www.dictionary.com/cgi-bin/dict.pl?term=riff&r=67 See if that´s what you need. If it has a "nasty" meaning; I ain´t going there. Bye |

Esto está sacado de los cojones del autor, Explanation: no le veo nada de sentido. "Riff" en español queda igual. "Bulbous" figura en el diccionario. Pero no hay manera, ni con imaginación, de conjugarlos. Sugiero que te inventes algo. |
