purchasing division (Van Dale)
peilers? [more context please]
the addresses of all suppliers of goods and services\' [note stock English phrase: goods & services not \'services and goods\'.]
The link to the real world is not far off.

Nathalie, I can see that you are sometimes only looking for confirmation of ideas that you have yourself, but I think we would all appreciate it if you could supply a bit more context with your queries. It doesn\'t matter if you don\'t want the whole phrase translated - just say so in your query. Thanks!
