Cushion

Un cojín es una bolsa suave de algún material ornamental, rellena con lana, cabello, plumas, fibra discontinua de poliéster, material no tejido, o incluso papel desgarrado en fragmentos. Se puede usar para sentarse o arrodillarse sobre, o para suavizar la dureza o angularidad de una silla o un sofá. Un cojín también se conoce como un almohadillado, hassock, reposacabezas y una farsa. Los cojines y alfombras se pueden utilizar temporalmente fuera para suavizar un suelo duro. Se pueden colocar en tumbonas y se utilizan para prevenir las molestias de la hierba húmeda y los insectos mordedores. Algunos dialectos del inglés usan esta palabra para referirse a las almohadas de lanzamiento también. El cojín es un artículo de mobiliario muy antiguo; Los inventarios de los contenidos de palacios y grandes casas de la Alta Edad Media constantemente los mencionaban. Los cojines eran a menudo de gran tamaño, cubiertos de cuero, y lo suficientemente firme como para servir de asiento, pero la tendencia constante de todos los muebles ha sido crecer con el tiempo.

A cushion is a soft bag of some ornamental material, stuffed with wool, hair, feathers, polyester staple fiber, non-woven material, or even paper torn into fragments. It may be used for sitting or kneeling upon, or to soften the hardness or angularity of a chair or couch. A cushion is also referred to as a bolster, hassock, headrest and a sham. Cushions and rugs can be used temporarily outside to soften a hard ground. They can be placed on sunloungers and used to prevent annoyances from moist grass and biting insects. Some dialects of English use this word to refer to throw pillows as well. The cushion is a very ancient article of furniture; the inventories of the contents of palaces and great houses in the early Middle Ages constantly made mention of them. Cushions were then often of great size, covered with leather, and firm enough to serve as a seat, but the steady tendency of all furniture has been to grow smaller with time.

10 CITAS EN INGLÉS CON «CUSHION»

Citas y frases célebres con la palabra cushion.

1

Abdul Aziz Al Ghurair

The Central Bank should have a permanent window for discounting high quality securities where banks could go and discount these. It gives peace of mind to the banks. In the absence of this facility, what banks tend to do is to keep a liquidity cushion for emergency requirements. This is a very expensive way of managing liquidity.

2

Alex Berenson

Equity is the cushion that protects financial institutions from unexpected changes in the value of their assets. The greater the leverage, the smaller the losses required to wipe out a company's equity, leaving it without enough money to repay the people who hold its debt.

3

Kevin Bleyer

Diplomats willing to sit for an interview usually prefer the terra firma of CNN over the whoopee cushion of Comedy Central.

4

H. Jackson Brown, Jr.

Hope is not a resting place but a starting point - a cactus, not a cushion.

5

Ann Coulter

Liberals become indignant when you question their patriotism, but simultaneously work overtime to give terrorists a cushion for the next attack and laugh at dumb Americans who love their country and hate the enemy.

6

Evan Davis

It is no wonder that bank capital is regulated. When borrowing and lending is profitable, it is tempting for banks to scale up their operations and to borrow and lend too much in relation to their capital, in effect reducing the effectiveness of the potential capital cushion.

7

Tom Hanks

When I was 21 years old, I had a job playing Santa Claus in a shopping centre in Sacramento. I was rail thin, so it's not like I was a traditional Santa Claus even then. I had a square stomach; that was the shape of the sofa cushion that I had stuffed into my pants.

8

Joanna Kerns

I invested. I wanted to cushion the future. I'm a financial success!

9

Douglas Leone

Raise as little as you can to get you to something that you can show - plus maybe a quarter or two so you have a little bit of cushion - and then raise some more money. Raise as little - not as much - as you can because that's the most expensive equity you're going to sell.

10

Randy Pausch

The metaphor I've used is... somebody's going to push my family off a cliff pretty soon, and I won't be there to catch them. And that breaks my heart. But I have some time to sew some nets to cushion the fall. So, I can curl up in a ball and cry, or I can get to work on the nets.
