Inquietudes

[María José]

Can anybody think of a good translation for the Spanish word inquietudes (una persona que tiene muchas inquietudes)? And a translation for the English undeterred?

[Ambarina]

inquietud: curiosity, curiosity about something, interest in something, inquisitive
Una persona con muchas inquietudes puede ser "inquisitive" o "has a desire for knowledge" o "is curious" o "has a wide range of interests".

undeterred: sin inmutarse; sin intimidarse o sin dejarse intimidar
She was undeterred by the threats.
She walked on undeterred.

[Tomisimo]

Depende, pero aquí te va unas opciones...

Tengo unas inquietudes.
There are a few things bothering me.
I'm a little uneasy about a few things.
I'm slightly worried about a few things.

to be undeterred
no cambiar
no ser afectado en lo más mínimo
no dejarse
no dejarse intimidar

He continued on his way undeterred.
Siguió su camino sin inmutarse.
Siguió su camino sin ser intimidado
Siguió sin dejar que le cambiaran de opinión.
Siguió sin cambiar de opinión.

I have heard the word iquieto before and would have assumed that
a person with inquietudes would be a fidgety person or a person with "issues".

Sí, el diccionario me dice "Inqueto" "worried, or anxious (about something) (or maybe a person with alot of concerns about bad things about to happen)"
