wózek do przewozu przepiórek Explanation: are you sure about the spelling? Personally, I have never heard of anything like this... But: BUGGY = a light horse-drawn carriage having either four wheels (esp. in the U.S. and Canada) or two wheels (esp. in Britain and India)(Collins English Dictionary) = WÓZ, WÓZEK, WAGONIK (Dictionary of science and technology) QUAIL = any small Old World gallinaceous game bird of the genus Coturnix and related genera, having a rounded body and small tail: family Phasianidae (pheasants) Collins English Dictionary) = PRZEPIÓRKA (Coturnix coturnix) (Dictionary of science and technology) Your QUAIL BUGGY might be a buggy used for transportation of quail (wózek do przewozu przepiórek), or hunting for quail (wózek do polowań na przepiórki). More context would probably reveal its purpose. Hope it helps, Beata Collins English Dictionary Dictionary of science and technology |
