Chinese term or phrase: 口取纸
别名索引纸,因为最早的口取纸上面涂着一层胶水(那时没有不干胶),用嘴舔一下后可以粘在帐页或纸张的旁边用来写注释或编号之类(所以叫口取)

self-adhesive label


Explanation:
The first self-adhesive labels were introduced by R. Stanton Avery in the 1930s. Avery's company became today's Avery Dennison Corp., which still makes adhesives.

Wet Glue Label


Explanation:
Wet glue是用舌头舔湿粘上去的,等干了才会粘牢,就是我们小时候用的邮票那样。Self-adhesive是贴纸那样子,一旦从背面蜡光纸撕离粘上普通纸就马上粘牢。

想当年翻译"不干胶"这个词的前辈也很厉害啊,wet=不干,真有才!
