"S" is shady
« Reply #4527 on: July 06, 2006, 11:42:44 am »
Jack came lagging in late one afternoon, drank his two bottles of beer cooled in a wet sack on the shady side of the tent, ate two bowls of stew, four of Ennis's stone biscuits, a can of peaches, rolled a smoke, watched the sun drop.    [short story]

The Spanish word for shady (place) is sombreado.
