bregar – to fight/strive for – luchar

[Is]

bregar: pronounced bray-GAHR. To fight or strive for something. To exert oneself vigorously in a task. To make strenuous efforts toward a goal. To contend with many odds in a battle or conflict. To fight it out with someone or something.

Literally, bregar means to knead bread dough or flatten it out with a rolling pin (or a machine known as a bregadera) so that the gluten gains strength. This gives the loaf a cohesive texture, without the risk of falling apart during baking.

Synonyms: knead, toil, struggle, vie, endeavor, slave away, lumber through a process.

Usage examples:

Anantias de bregar, Tia Carmina punxo pizquinos de farina na masa. [Before kneading the dough, Aunt Carmina sprinkled it with flour.]

Nolo tuvo bregando meses enteros pa que lu dexaren trabayar nel astilleru. [Nolo worked for months so that they’d let him work at the shipyard.]

Na vida hai que bregar por dalgo. [You need to strive for something in life.]

[Terechu]

Este es el gran verbo desconocido para los que traducen "to work hard" como "trabajar duro".
