WHAT DOES VERGA MEAN IN PORTUGUESE?

Dick

Verga

The cock is nautically a wooden or metal stick, simply supported by a ship's mast and attached to a sail. In the traditional sailboats they were suspended horizontally to the mast and it was from her that the candles fell. In the sails of the auric type the dick began to lean and thus better results were obtained to navigate near the line of the wind. The Latin-type candlestick is called an antenna.

A verga é, em náutica, um pau — de madeira ou metal — simplesmente apoiado ao mastro do navio e ao qual se prende uma vela. Nos veleiros tradicionais eram suspensas horizontalmente ao mastro e era dela que caíam as velas. Nas velas de tipo aúrico a verga começou a inclinar-se e assim conseguiram-se melhores resultados a navegar próximo da linha do vento. A verga das velas tipo latino chama-se antena.
