Stroke=Golpe, Choque; Thumbwheel=ruedecilla accionada con el pulgar Explanation: Stroke, even in the technical category can have multiple meanings. The above are the more generic. If the context is typewriting i.e. it would be "pulsación [de tecla]"; in boating it would be "golpe de remo" This is per Diccionario Técnico de Javier Collazo |
