peer agreement (net): +1oscilan / se desplazan Explanation: basado en la acepción siguienre y para ese contexto reciprocate /rɪˈsɪprəˌkeɪt/ vb to move or cause to move backwards and forwards http://www.wordreference.com/definition/reciprocate También lo he visto traducido en Sapiensman como 'retroceder' o 'ejercer un movimiento alternativo', peor creo que esta propuesta se adapta mejor al caso. |
