A suitable verb "to lean".

Question

I am confused as to how I would express "to lean" as there doesn't seem to be a verb that I can find at least that expresses that self-evidently.

For example.

I leaned my head.

_______ mi cabeza.

Thanks an advance.

Answer 1

Yep I agree with Mariana

inclinar(se), ladear(se) seem to fit the bill.

to lean back in a chair / reclinarse en una silla

The "me" at the beginning is not needed. Just "incliné la cabeza". - 00e657d4, Nov 2, 2011

Answer 2

I would say "Me incliné la cabeza." Let's wait for other answers

Welcome to the forum.

No "me". Incliné la cabeza. - 00e657d4, Nov 2, 2011

Answer 3

I would consider using the verb. Apoyar. Like, lean on me = Apóyate en mi. Lean your head on my shoulder. = Apoya tu cabeza en mi hombro. Another verb you can use is. Recuesta. Recuesta tu cabeza en mi hombro, recueste la cabeza en la almohada.

Answer 4

Ahh inclinar seems to be exactly what I was looking for, thanks.
