Crimplings Explanation: Si, credo che Maria Luisa ha ragione, potrebbe essere arricciature. Crimpling e' anche sinonimo di curling. Vedi http://www.websters-dictionary-online.com/translation/Italia... http://www.acroname.com/howto/crimp/crimp.html -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 7 hrs (2008-07-07 04:31:20 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://www.cadvision.com/blanchas/54pontiac/crimps.html |

fill dirt Explanation: I think its a typo, but as I said in my note the word sfridi makes me think that it some sort of filling in with gravel or something else, so I am suggesting this term. Fill dirt is earthy material which is used to fill in a depression or hole in the ground. Fill dirt is usually subsoil (soil from beneath the top soil) and underlying soil parent material which has little soil organic matter or biological activity. Fill dirt is taken from a location where soil is being removed as a part of leveling an area for construction; it may also contain rocks and stones as well as earth. |

twisting Explanation: Arrocciatura è senza dubbio un errore di battitura. Il termine corretto è arricciatura. Arricciare i cavi elettrici (quindi il collegamento a cui fai riferimento) significa unire i cavi spelati (vedere www.er6italia.com/download/guide/portatarga.pdf "Per collegare i cavi fra loro, non usate il classico metodo di arricciare due cavi spelati e basta..."). In inglese, questa azione di unione dei cavi spelati si dice twisting perché vengono avvolti insieme per fare un cavo unico. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 giorni (2008-07-11 06:44:34 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- Thank you, Simon! |
