Acceptable word for Sulk
Spanish doesn't have a generally accepted word for "Sulk"! The dictionary does give 'amorrar - to lower the head' and 'mohina - grudge', but neither convey 'sulk' properly.
As one married to una española for more than thirty years I can testify that while their more usual response to affronts is fiery rather than sullen - they are more than capable of a prolonged sulk when it suits them!
