virgen²

² = blank, untapped, virgin, untouched, pristine, chaste, unchartered.

Nota: Es recomendable usar en su lugar con este mismo significado " uncharted".

Ex: To save the 'current' MARC record, place a blank, formatted (double-sided, double-density, soft sectored) floppy diskette into drive 'A' of the computer.

Ex: Archivists who do have such material in their charge are the keepers of a largely untapped source of historical material which offers a different and balancing perspective on history.

Ex: In this culture, girls must be virgins at marriage & must not demonstrate overt pleasure at the beginning of the marriage lest their virginity be thrown into doubt.

Ex: Although national parks are perceived as pristine areas, many are dumping grounds for hazardous materials - everything from industrial toxins to unexploded munitions.

Ex: Believe it or not, you can be celibate without being chaste, and chaste without being celibate.
