trail, wake
Podemos ver la estela del cohete.
We can see the rocket's trail.
Mirando tu brillante estela ¿Quién eres?
Looking at your shining trail, who are you?
— Amarcord (1973)
La estela que va dejando en mi garganta permanece largamente.
The trail it leaves in my throat lingers for a long time.
— タンポポ (1985)
Las cabezas de los nadadores quedaban atrás de nuestra estela.
The swimmers’ heads were left behind in our wake.
