Portuguese term or phrase: desgurna um olhal ou gorne
Laçada

Este é efetivamente o nó mais simples e que é muitas das vezes a primeira fase de outros mais complexos. Quando feito no chicote de um cabo serve de falcassa temporária e pode ainda ser utilizado para impedir, de forma expedita, que um cabo desgurna um olhal ou gorne. A laçada pode ser singela (figura superior) ou dobrada (figura inferior).
