From Old Galician-Portuguese regaçar (crossed with agacharse), from Vulgar Latin *recaptiāre. Doublet of arregazar.

Pronunciation

• IPA^(key): [rekaˈt͡ʃaɾ]

Verb

recachar (first-person singular present recacho, first-person singular preterite recachei, past participle recachado)

1. (transitive) to tuck in, hike up, lift (a skirt, dress); to uncover

   Synonyms: abadar, arregazar, remangar

   • c. 1840, Ramón Varela Vahamonde, Conversa entre os arrieiros:

     Por eso non queren suba
     Na sisa nin na taberna
     E, en tanto que os demais paguen,
     Eles recachan a perna.
     E como serán sumidos
     En bebedelas, o aumento,
     Dan a sisa pol-os tragos
     E miran outros pr’o vento.

     That's why they don't want an increase
     in the surcharge nor in the tavern
     and, as long as the others pay,
     they uncover the leg [they sunbathe].
     And since they are gonna be consumed
     in binges, the augment,
     they give the surcharge for the gulps
     and others look into the wind.

2. to bristle
3. (intransitive, of dogs) to rise the tail
4. (intransitive) to open wide one's eyes
