1830.0. "Translations for bike parts" by TALLIS::JBELL (Zeno was almost here) Wed Jan 23 1991 17:00

In 1828.2, someone asked for a translation.

I was looking through Sutherland's Handbook for Bicycle Mechanincs
and found a chart that gives translations for bicycle terms.
I had to omit the diagram that came with the translations.
I also skipped the Japanese.  It's page 16-6 if you need that info.

Items in the English section enclsed in ()'s are the Brittish terms.
Loose '` and " are attempts at accents.  They apply to the preceeding letter.

    re: "ALLEZ!		ALLEZ!		ALLEZ!	ALLEZ!"
    
    Well, there's something that comes out as: "tahh-see-on"
    which I assumed was a gallic way of saying "attention".
    Course, I didn't know if he was refering to nails in the
    road or incoming fire, so ALLEZ! would have done just as well.

1830.10Ca depend...IDEFIX::HEMMINGSLanterne RougeWed Feb 06 1991 04:1510
I think it depends on what you are trying to achieve, down on the track at
Mandelieu, there is normally a swifty string going round the bottom and a "club
run" going round the top.  When the fast string comes up behind the slower one,
the man at the haed shouts �a gauche�, presumably to warn them that a string is
coming through that side.  If he was warning those behind him, I would expect
�a droite�.

Purely academic, at that speed I can't can't hear or see, and I've forgotton
which is left and right - anyway most of them have such thick accents that all
you can really catch is �dur, dur, hein?�
1830.11german, with gendersMUNICH::URBANThu Jul 11 1991 08:4234
Hi folks,
    
    for those who want the german, with genders (important if you want to
    *talk* about the parts!) here they are, along with one correction.
