production plant Explanation: see, for example, http://www.english-test.net/forum/ftopic58661.html -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2013-05-30 17:47:45 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I think we can safely assume that "výrobní hala" originates in the German. For a discussion on Produktionshalle and related suggestions by German > English translators on ProZ, see http://www.proz.com/kudoz/german_to_english/engineering_gene... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2013-05-30 17:56:48 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- (see in particular the asker's comments: "But when I search for 'production hall' or 'production halls' on Google, I get page after page of hits on foreign sites - German, Czech, Swedish and so on, but no hits on sites based in English-speaking countries.") |

production hall Explanation: . -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 mins (2013-05-30 16:18:09 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://www.haltec.co.uk/en/products/halls/steel-buildings/wa... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 14 mins (2013-05-30 16:28:28 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://aboutus.lego.com/de-de/news-room/2011/march/the-lego-... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2013-05-30 19:17:31 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- actually, it is identical to 'manufacturing floor', which is a large, large area usually with no partitions, see here https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C1CHFX_enUS502US502&q=man... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2013-05-30 19:24:51 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- production plant is, more often than not, meant as a building or complex of buildings, which, my opinion only, výrobní hala is not. However, if you say that something is made in a production plant, (a bit redundant because a plant is for production i.e. factory), you are correct, but here we are being asked for a translation of a part of the plant, i.e. manufacturing floor, manufacturing hall, or simply floor, if you wish, regardless if it is a one-story building. |
