The term dented comes from the action of dented and means the sagging of a surface caused through pressure or blow. The initial idea of this word is directly linked to cars, since their bodywork is usually metal to a large extent and that is why when there is a collision it is likely that the bodywork will dent. For a car, suffering a dent is not only an aesthetic issue but it also reduces its value, since compared to one in perfect condition it costs less than if it did not have it. In general, all instruments made of metal can be dented, except those made of wood or stone.
The Royal Spanish Academy defines this term as the process that takes place when something is ornamented or has spherical ornaments. It should be clarified that the word aboyar is another term and is linked to placing buoys in the sea, these are floating objects that serve the function of giving a signal.
Some examples of denting are: "After denting the door with a bang, the artist came out of the hotel angry" or "if you hit the can like that, it will dent", "the truck after the crash had a dent in the door rear left side ”.
In conclusion, the dent may not always be a problem as its definition indicates, since there are works of art that are made in metal in relief that are considered one of the most beautiful and delicate works I know that can be done on metal..
