Art, Arts & Crafts, Painting / Jewelry | | English term or phrase: iron shot | Bonjour,
Je cherche à traduire une liste d'outils pour fabriquer des bijoux, dont un nommé "iron shot", dans la liste certains mots sources sont mal orthographiés, mais a priori celui-ci semble correct, mais je ne trouve pas sa traduction.
Merci de votre aide. |
| | | grenaille de fer | Explanation:
Well, that's what a good dictionary [R+C] suggests; however, 'grenaille de plomb' is 'lead shot' OK, but they oddly give 'grenaille de fer' as 'iron filings'; however, I'd have thought in your context, the meaning would have been unambiguous
