to flow
Usage Note
Correr covers running on foot, flowing water, and even financial risk: correr el riesgo (to run the risk). In computing contexts it also means 'to run' a program. The reflexive correrse can mean to slide or shift, and in some registers carries a vulgar meaning — a word to use carefully in informal speech.
Examples
"Me gusta correr por el parque."
Natural Translation

Literal Translation
To-me pleases to-run through the park.
