: Mejor término, más preciso que “andamio colgado”, que es una traducción más “libre”. /.../ De nada, Rocío, es cierto, sólo que “guindola” me parece que se ajusta mejor. Lo que no sé es qué se usará más en Perú... :-)

"Andamio colgado" es correcto, pero creo que da una idea “más amplia”. Tengo la impresión de que “guindola” tiene un sentido más específico, aunque los términos se puedan usar de forma intercambiable. (En concreto, creo que “guindola” responde mejor a la acepción de “transport a person between two points”...)
