Media / Multimedia / videonauhuri
English term or phrase: play
Tyhmä kysymys ehkä, mutta näen jatkuvasti "paina play-nappulaa" kun kyseessä on esim videonauha. Mankassahan tämän voisi kääntää "soita", mutta mitä videoiden kohdalla? Toista? Grateful, as always.

agree  Krista Igbarria (X): Playn vastineena (videoiden käyttiksissä) näkee myös ihan substantiivia 'toisto'.
