Hola a todos:
¿Alguien sabe qué es exactamente una "divining query"? ¿Es como una especie de enigma quizás? El contexto es el siguiente:
"The things that she said, the words he had taught her, and the divining queries that they put to each other --they were his and hers. They were the things that made her fidelity so important, he believed; and when he thought of how important those things were, the words and the rest, he sometimes could understand that the physical act in unfaithfulness can be unimportant."
Muchas gracias,

interrogantes
En la experiencia de conocer a una persona y relacionarse con ella, hay un intercambio de experiencias, de afirmaciones, y también de "interrogantes" que permiten acceder a aquello que está por debajo de la superficie, lo que no se dice explícitamente, pero que subyace en el ambiente dentro del cual se gesta la relación.
Example sentence:
...las interrogantes que se plantearon uno al otro...

las preguntas que se hicieron entre sí para conocer verdades ocultas
esto es para traducir "the divining queries that they put to one another"
