I can help with a couple off the bat Explanation: 3. sapeurs-pompiers would be the fire brigade or squad 4. salon d'honneur would be the assembly hall or conference room 5. maison du tourisme = tourist office 6. Go with traditional ("artisan" doesn't quite fit in the context) Hope it helps. Martin J. Perazzo |

"Imagerie d'Épinal" Explanation: Apparently, Épinal, a city in Lorraine, is famous for its prints. Do a search in Altavista or other search engine and you'll find information about the subject. Cheers! Martin |

Hoping that the 3rd time trying is a charm! Explanation: 1. I found no explanation for the acronym. Leave it as is. 2. L'Imagerie was a unique institution in France. Keep the French name. 3. Fire brigade. The usual term is now "pompiers". "Sapeurs" refers to the earlier function, that pof undermining city walls, etc. 4. Reception hall. 5. Tourism Office (In some cities here in the USA it may be called:CVB, i.e., Convention and Visitors Bureau.) 6. " Artisanal" often means "cottage industry." |
