Czech to English translations [PRO] Art/Literary - History / sběrný tábor
Czech term or phrase:sběrný tábor
není to koncentrák, (kde se může taky jít na smrt) ale tábor kde se po válce shromažďovali ztracenci a čekali na návrat domů (nechci použít “concentration camp”).
napadá mne toho dost ale zajímá mne názor ostatních
Explanation: A displaced persons camp or DP camp is a temporary facility for displaced persons coerced into forced migration. The term is mainly used for camps established after World War II in West Germany and in Austria, as well as in the United Kingdom, primarily for refugees from Eastern Europe – the majority of them being Jews – and for the former inmates of the Nazi German concentration camps. Even two years after the end of World War II in Europe, some 850,000 people still lived in DP camps across Western Europe, among them Armenians, Poles, Latvians, Lithuanians, Estonians, Yugoslavs, Greeks, Ukrainians and Czechoslovaks.
Recepion camps sa týkajú aj utečencov, alebo osôb z povojnovej doby. Reception camps asi nebudú reception centers-camps, ktoré spomínate. Viem, že výraz camp evokuje súvislosť s nacistami - concentration camps / selection camps, etc. Reception camp je regulárny výraz pre zberný tábor.
myslím že reception centers-camps byly částí Nazi "Gemanization" v letech '41-42 a když ty děti z nějakeho důvodu ''neprošly'' tak šly do vyhlazovacích táborů. Tohle se týká poválečé doby
možná že bylo nutné dát víc kontextu, tak jestli jsem někoho zavedla, omlouvám se
jde o Lidické děti vracející se z Německa kde byly na ” převychování”
