Frenador

A 'frenador' is a noun (masculine) in Spanish that refers to someone or something that applies a brake. This can be a person who brakes a vehicle (like a car or bicycle), a component within a braking system (e.g., the brake itself), or even, figuratively, something that inhibits or slows down a process or activity. The context dictates the specific interpretation, whether it's a physical mechanism, a person performing an action, or an abstract force that restrains something. The word inherently implies the act of slowing or stopping movement or progress.
