Frasi di esempio
- And when the nose of the plane moves up or down, the plane is said to tor pitch. (the word tor also means kneel, which Maltz thought was apt, since if a four-legged animal is able to kneel with either its hind legs or its front legs, it is able to pitch or tilt up or down.) [HolQeD-11-2 p.9]
Note d'uso
Translation given in HolQeD-11-2 is tor pitch, however that article seems to suggest that the word works similarly to ron be banking, be rolling, and is therefore translated as be pitching here. One would probably say tor Duj the vessel is pitching, and Duj tormoH 'orwI' the pilot causes the vessel to pitch.
