In football, dribbling is a movement carried out to deceive an opponent.
Haggling is a verb with different meanings. It may be the action of dribbling , which is a movement that is executed quickly to avoid an opponent or deceive a rival.
For example: "I think the striker made a mistake when trying to dribble: it was preferable for him to pass the ball to a teammate" , "After dribbling past two defenders, he felt discomfort in his leg and fell to the ground" , "When dribbling "The Nigerian player found himself alone in front of the rival goalkeeper."
Haggle a price
Another use of the concept is linked to the discussion of the price of a product that is for sale . When haggling, the buyer tries to get the seller to agree to lower the original price: "In some cultures, haggling is almost an obligation: sellers get offended if you don't do it," "I'm interested in that lamp, but I'm going to haggle over the price because "It's too expensive," "After haggling with the merchant for several minutes, the young man took the piece of furniture at an unbeatable price ."
The act of haggling is so common in certain commercial areas that it is practically mandatory. Nowadays it is common to sell and buy products over the Internet, whether new or used, and in both cases it is customary to haggle to get the best possible price. Although each seller has the option of accepting this practice or not , the volume of competition present in virtual stores pushes them to accept it if they want the transaction to be resolved in the short term.
In other words, it is enough for one seller who offers a particular product to accept that interested parties haggle over the price so that the rest are forced to do so, to lower the final price or to wait for the first one to leave the list to have again an opportunity . And in this type of exchanges our ability to let go of our belongings, to evaluate the results and tolerate them not being exactly as we expected, and to fight to achieve objectives is put into practice.
When selling a second-hand product online, it is advisable to set a price slightly higher than we expect, since most users ask for a reduction in their first contact with the sellers . This is not a considerable difference, but rather a value between 5% and 10%. Excessive ambition is of no use in these cases, since many buyers become offended if they cannot haggle successfully and look for other offers.
Bargaining is an almost mandatory action in some cultures.
Energy savings
In colloquial language, we talk about haggling when a person refuses to do something or does not dedicate enough time or effort to it: "If you want to work with me, you cannot haggle energy: you have to give yourself one hundred percent."
Just as in the world of buying and selling, if someone haggles energy it means that they are looking for a way to invest the minimum possible to obtain a certain objective . In the previous example, we are talking about a work environment, so we can understand that the interlocutor intended to make very little effort when carrying out his tasks , something that the sender did not appreciate. Some adjectives that can be used to describe a person who behaves in this way are freeloader , lazy , comfortable or lazy , depending on the context.
Bargaining as the action of evading or escaping
Bargaining can also be about escape or evasion , whether physical or symbolic.
«Thanks to music, the young man was able to avoid the addictions and bad habits that usually trap teenagers in his neighborhood» y «The tennis player intends to avoid the operating room and opts for a less invasive treatment» son frases que reflejan esta acepción.
