scratch
The Spanish verb 'rascarse' refers to the action of scratching oneself, typically to relieve an itch or irritation on the skin. It is a reflexive verb, which means that the subject performs the action on themselves. In everyday situations, people often rascarse when they feel discomfort from insect bites, dry skin, or allergies. This action can be done with fingers or any object that can effectively alleviate the itch. The term encompasses both physical relief and the instinctive response to an uncomfortable sensation.
