explanation Explanation: I would says Start/Shutdown button. This is because "arresto generale" means a shutdown (complete stop), rather than stoppage of certain movements or processes. |

on/off or start/stop Explanation: Either one, without knowing more about it. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 16 hrs 10 mins (2005-04-19 14:09:21 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- With the added information and considering Leonid\'s answer below, if you have space you should use \"Startup/Shutdown\". If it is a small button where there is space for only one word, I might use \"Halt\" instead of stop or shutdown, because it is more final and complete. It is the idea of \"activate\" versus \"deactivate\" or \"begin/halt\". Hope this helps. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 16 hrs 17 mins (2005-04-19 14:16:39 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Another possibility is \"Start/Full Stop\". :) |
