QUÉ SIGNIFICA HOURGLASS EN INGLÉS

Reloj de arena

Hourglass

Un reloj de arena mide el paso de unos minutos o una hora de tiempo. Tiene dos bombillas de vidrio verticales conectadas que permiten un goteo regulado del material de la tapa a la parte inferior. Una vez que la bombilla superior está vacía, se puede invertir para comenzar la sincronización de nuevo. Los factores que afectan el tiempo medido incluyen la cantidad de arena, el tamaño del bulbo, el ancho del cuello y la calidad de la arena. Alternativas a la arena son cáscara de huevo pulverizada y mármol pulverizado. En los tiempos modernos, los relojes de arena son ornamental, o se utiliza cuando basta una medida aproximada, como en los temporizadores de huevo para cocinar o para juegos de mesa.

An hourglass measures the passage of a few minutes or an hour of time. It has two connected vertical glass bulbs allowing a regulated trickle of material from the top to the bottom. Once the top bulb is empty, it can be inverted to begin timing again. Factors affecting the time measured include the amount of sand, the bulb size, the neck width, and the sand quality. Alternatives to sand are powdered eggshell and powdered marble. In modern times, hourglasses are ornamental, or used when an approximate measure suffices, as in egg timers for cooking or for board games.
