peer agreement (net): +1the car turned Explanation: These are taken from diccionarios.com - a very convenient online source - verbo transitivo (esquina) to turn, go round verbo intransitivo (girar) to turn - doblar a la derecha - to turn right |

the car spun/skidded Explanation: ¿Ese texto está tal cual? Porque no tiene mucho sentido. Cabría suponer que el "dobló" se refiere a que el auto patinó al frenar, en cuyo caso lo que propongo sería adecuado. No es normal decir "the car turned" sin agregar "left, right, the corner, etc". |
