Computers and peripherals Explanation: Ciao Therese. Secondo me si tratta di Elaboratori elettronici E Periferiche oppure di Elaboratori elettronici - Periferiche. (Sono comunque due terminologie separate) Un elaboratore elettronico è un Computer e una Periferica serve a immettere o ricavare informazioni da un elaboratore: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral Spero ti sia utile! |

peripheral electronic processors Explanation: Susanna may be right. If not, the last word should presumably be periferichi (same gender as elettronici). In any case the source text appears to contain an error - ask the client. |

Computers - peripherals Explanation: A dash is missing here in the Italian. The classic "peripheral" device for a computer is a printer. The word originated when in the early days computers were massive and occupied a whole room and the devices connected to them like printers were relatively much smaller and called peripherals. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2014-07-08 18:12:06 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The word is femine in Italian to agree with "unità" http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periferica -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2014-07-08 18:12:18 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- feminine |
