English term

Common(ly) work area

English to French Tech/Engineering Manufacturing usine de lait en poudre
Commonly work area
Work areas with cleanliness requirement lower than that of quasi-cleaning work area, such as milk collecting workshop, raw material warehouse, packing material warehouse, outer packing workshop and finished products warehouse.
Plutôt "Common work area" je pense.
Sachant qu'il existe une "Zone propre" et une "Zone quasi-propre" qui ont des normes de nettoyage plus strictes que celle-ci.
Proposed translations (French)
4 +1 zone générale de travai
3 zone de travail

Le client a toujours raison ! Même quand il se trompe. Donc, je pense qu'il faut lui signaler pourquoi ce n'est pas la bonne traduction mais, s'il insiste, utiliser son terme préféré.
orgogozo (asker) Aug 9, 2013:
Oui Ce que vous dites paraît très logique. Mais si mon client utilise depuis longtemps un autre terme c'est aussi normal qu'il s'y tienne.
B D Finch Aug 9, 2013:
Zone de circulation ? Zone de circulation c'est "circulation area" pas "work area". Quant à "standard", "standard work area" c'est une zone ou (plus fréquemment) un domaine de travail conforme aux normes quelconques et sans aucun caractère spécial.
orgogozo (asker) Aug 9, 2013:
D'après la terminologie utilisée par mon client : = Zone de circulation standard

A "common work area" is an area where various different trades or contractors can work or that is not restricted to a specific type of work. It would be wrong to assume that one can simply forget about the word "common(ly)" rather than correcting it from adverb to adjective.
Peer comment(s):
agree Daryo : yes "common" as in "nothing special"

Thanks Daryo. "Common" in property descriptions almost invariably means "shared use".

Vous avez raison, M. Orgogozo. On ne dit pas 'commonly work area' en anglais.

Merci GILOU. 1. Vous êtes vite. 2. C'est tout un honneur d'avoir l'appui de quelqu'un de votre trempe.

Thank you for your input. That's why I wrote ''On ne dit pas 'commonly work area' en anglais.''
disagree Daryo : what about "common"? this is one item in a list of various kind of "work area", must be differentiated from others in some way. In a list of colours, you don't put just "a colour" but "blue colour", "yellow colour" etc
