1. Exista si prefecthood sau -daom, dar sunt clar 'informal': http://www.google.ro/search?hl=ro&q=prefecthood&btnG=Căutare...

2. Office are dublu statut: 'calitatea de' si 'biroul/sediul' Prefectului, dar cu atat mai bine, pentru ca si 'institutie' are sens abstract+concret.

disagree  Anca Nitu: prefectorial office din exemplul dvs se traduce cu : functia de prefect (?) cat despre "prefecthood" mai bine nu comentez
17 hrs
  -> 1. Ca sa nu fiti de acord cu 'prefectorial office' dar de acord cu 'prefect's' poate parea putin suspect; in orice caz nu explicati de ce; cat despre 'prefecthood', as fi sperat sa va dati seama ca e o gluma :)

Reference: Prefecture, Wardenship si Prefect's Office

Reference information:
In Canada se cheama "Wardenship", in Europa (preluat din franceza ) "Prefecture" sau ( mie imi place mai mult ) "Prefect's Office"

in Romania este asta :

In Romania, a prefect is the appointed governmental representative in a county (judeţ), in an agency called prefectură. The prefect's role is to represent the national government at local level, acting as a liaison and facilitating the implementation of National Development Plans and governing programmes at local level.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefect

ceea ce corespunde fix cu "préfet -ul" francez

Domaine(s) : - administration publique


français


préfecture n. f.
Équivalent(s) English wardenship



Définition :
Charge de la personne qui occupe le poste de préfet.


Note(s) :
On dira : élection à la préfecture ou élection au poste de préfet. Au Québec, où le préfet est à la direction d'une municipalité régionale de comté (MRC), on dira également : élection à la tête de la MRC.
Les expressions course à la préfecture et élection préfectorale ne sont en usage qu'en Europe.
Le terme wardenship est utilisé au Canada, alors que le terme prefecture est utilisé en Europe.
