Better safe than sorry Cheers Neil. :O)
neilmac (asker) Nov 5, 2008:
Final decision In the end I left in the repetition of the original - this particular client insists that the translator should not presume to change the form or content of the author's original - even when it's naff.
moken Nov 3, 2008:
Agree with Richard and Alidelima Hi Neil; I remember having researched this some time ago: http://www.proz.com/kudoz/spanish_to_english/ships_sailing_m...
Clinton chose to go for "spring high tide", as per my initial sugg., but unless the text's 'máxima' refers to the highest spring tide over a period of years, just 'spring tide' seems to cover all bases. :O) :O)
Richard Boulter Nov 2, 2008:
Repetetiveness: Okay, we have an excellent range of terms for this annual event. My only suggestion is to achieve both clarity and concise wording. The query term itself is repetetive, using two terms meaning the same 'high tide' of the year: 'marea viva' (the max) and 'pleamar (the max), as well as 'maxima' and 'equinoccial' (the max). Thus, perhaps any amount of repetition is justified, with 'live tide' (the max), 'spring tide' (the max), 'equinoxial tide', together with 'peak, high/highest, etc.' Depending on your context and target readership, I'd suggest a little conservativeness. It sounds like an interesting project. Happy typing.

"marea viva" / spring tide

Around new and full moon when the Sun, Moon and Earth form a line (a condition known as syzygy), the tidal forces due to the Sun reinforce those of the Moon. The tide's range is then maximum: this is called the spring tide, or just springs and is derived not from the season of spring but rather from the verb meaning "to jump" or "to leap up". When the Moon is at first quarter or third quarter, the Sun and Moon are separated by 90° when viewed from the earth, and the forces due to the Sun partially cancel those of the Moon. At these points in the lunar cycle, the tide's range is minimum: this is called the neap tide, or neaps.
