spire, capital Explanation: I think that "spire" fits better in your context. * A "spire" is a tallcone-shaped structure on the top of a building such as a church. * A "capital" is the top part of a stone column, which is sometimes decorated with stone leaves or other pattern; a technical term in architecture. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-10-28 03:09:59 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- typo> tall cone-shaped Collins Cobuild English Language Dictionary |

peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1canopy Explanation: this is what I think they are referring too.... a crib with a canopy.... a capitel is a column in architecture, but I cannot envision a crib with columns or pillars. Tal vez algún colega cubano nos puede sacar de dudas. Saludos. Maria ;o) |

hood Explanation: Hola Pedro, Otra opción, imaginando y deduciendo de "capité"... ¿capota? Puedes ver el enlace con una imagen de una cunita/cochecito con este aditamento. Buena suerte y saludos del Oso ¶:^) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-10-28 03:35:21 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Mamá a la negrita se le salen los pies en la cunita y la negra Merce\' ya no sabe qué hacer. Dru drume negrita si te duermes voy hacer una cunita que va a tener capité que va a tener cascabel. Si tú drume yo te traigo un mamei bien colorao y si no drume yo te traigo un babalá que da pau bau. Dru drume negrita si te duermes voy hacer una cunita que va a tener capité que va a tener cascabel. Reference: http://www.armasdondiego.com/pramwithood1.html |
