swdbak Explanation: This, and I assume here, refers to a vessel. The word may be a composite of 'swd' ('vessel') and 'bak' (Russian loan word for 'pot' or 'pot-like container.' Russian terms pepper technical Bulgarian. They were mostly adopted slavishly, uncritically and mostly incorrectly (just like Anglicisms are today). Thus 'swdbak' could mean a vessel. Mind you, I would not bet my shirt on it! |
