peer agreement (net): +3instep Explanation: Even on Wordreference, ankle is caviglia -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 19 mins (2009-06-02 20:37:35 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- La caviglia è una parte del collo del piede, come anche su Wikizionario Caviglia: regione del collo del piede, in corrispondenza dei malleoli caviglia affusolata slogarsi una caviglia -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 8 hrs (2009-06-03 04:35:36 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I have to say that Dr. Lofthouse is right, mobilising goes with ankle. Sometimes the Italian language is very unprecise. Even if caviglia is only a part of collo del piede, collo del piede is generally used as a synonym of caviglia with terms such as mobilise or mobilisation. I answered in a hurry about the single word without considering your context! |
