Efecto iridescente Explanation: o algo así is the first thing that comes to mind, but I think they've given you enough of a definition/description so that you, as a native speaker of Spanish, can come up with something better. It seems to be not a standard term sino invented by them, as evidenced by "so-called" and the quote marks. Also, it's a pretty stupid name, given the colloquial meaning of "flop" as "failure" or "to fail". I'd've said "flip". If you can see what they mean, just think of how you'd describe that. |
