peer agreement (net): +1donations Explanation: This is how it is normally translated. You might want to put "charity donations" but "charity" is implicit in the meaning of "donation". If you look you will see that the Garzanti agrees with me ;-) http://www.garzantilinguistica.it/interna_eng.html?dizionari... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2009-04-15 09:57:19 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- It is the usual term used in Italian accounts for this sort of thing. Most companies make some sort of donations to charity. As I say the Garzanti agrees with me, I never trust a bi-ling dictionary and some less than others.

1 hr confidence: 
acts of generosity Explanation: rather than donations and since the subject-matter is about the supply of gas this could fit your purpose. It can be found in the Codelupi Dictionary of Banking, Commerce and Law |
