I agree with Cecilia and would use "deslizantes". I would write: "el anillo se desliza por la cuerda". I wouldn't use "correr" as that verb also means "to run". Using it could bring some odd constructions with running landmarks and morphometricians chasing after them. :-) However, this could be one of those terms that varies across Spanish-speaking countries, and I wouldn't be surprised if the ideal term in Mexico (where I was born, and where the original question was formulated) would be different in other countries.

As a Spanish speaker, I often find myself at a loss about how to translate technical terms used in geometric morphometrics. I think the best translation for "sliding" is "deslizantes", but I'm also interested in the opinions of all the morphometricians. Cheers/Saludos, Cecilia Morgan Sección Mastozoología Div.

I would like to ask you what would you suggest, so maybe we can get a consensus. Well, all your opinions will be so useful. Thanks, Jimena. -- Jimena Bohórquez Herrera. Marine Biologist.
