Water that flows violently through a channel is referred to as a stream.

Raudales is the plural of raudal . The first meaning of the term rapid that is accepted by the dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy ( RAE ) refers to water that flows violently through a certain channel . For example: “The storm caused strong flows that flooded the city,” “There is not enough flow to practice rafting on this river,” “The flow generated by the storm forced dozens of residents to evacuate.”

The notion of floods is also used to mention the bulk or abundance of something that, in general, grows, distributes or multiplies very quickly : “Complaints came in floods after the governor's announcement,” “The minister received insults galore when he tried to talk to the victims” , “The Czech boxer received punches in abundance in the first round” .

Rapids and abundance

That which exists or is found “in abundance” , therefore, is abundant . If a journalist mentions that a certain tennis player has “talent in abundance,” he or she will be indicating that he or she is an athlete with great technical ability. Similarly, a company that receives “orders galore” for a certain product will have managed to generate a lot of interest among consumers regarding one of its proposals.
