Explanation:

disagree  golf264: please keep it in English or Dutch; French is not in the named combination for this Kudoz question; otherwise I think the answer is correct; but cannot read the explanation. Na de uitleg van Harry gelezen te hebben, moet ik me eens bedenken.

  -> Thanks! In fact, I made a mistake: I thought the target language was French. Fortunately, the word to translate is exactly the same in French as in English!
neutral  Harry Borsje: IMO progression is not a standard term in this context. Furthermore it would translate back as 'toename' which is more specific than 'verloop' which can go either way.
7 hrs
  -> Perhaps; but imo 'toename' doesn't seem evident from the context. By the way, 'variation' can go either way also.
