Volteese, Despacio translates to which of the following in English?

• A. Stand up
• B. Turn around, slowly
• C. Turn around quickly
• D. Run away

Answer: (B)

Volteese, Despacio uses a reflexive command to turn around and adds the adverb slowly, so the natural translation is “Turn around, slowly.” The form Volteese is the formal command to someone to perform the action of turning themselves, and Despacio specifies the manner. Stand up would use a different verb like levantar, Turn around quickly would need a different adverb (rápidamente) and often a sharper or different command, and Run away uses a completely different verb meaning to flee.
