6 hrs confidence: peer agreement (net): +4
peer agreement (net): +4they paraded me [out] in front of everyone Explanation: I think that “paraded” captures the implicit sense of violation on the part of a speaker recollecting having been handcuffed, hooded, and exposed to a crowd in a way that the awkward “put” does not. Manuel’s translation would also work. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 9 hrs (2018-07-18 12:47:26 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Over and apart from the context that I previously mentioned, I think that the use of "paraded" here is further justified by the mere use of the Spanish "pasar" *with a human being as the direct object.* |
