natural [water] springs and wells Explanation: in this context, springs and wells are obviously water. Maybe natural can be used instead of water. The OU is often used stylistically in Portuguese and I find it translate well as AND. French and Spanish also have this characteristic use of ou and o/u. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-08-27 17:00:17 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I think they either mean SPRING and WELL or you have to ask the client. It would seem to mean if there are two terms, HOW ABOUT SPRINGS AND MARSH WATER -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-08-27 17:02:33 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- OR SPRINGS AND SWAMP WATER I looked up manantial in the Aurélio and it also means swamp or marsh. |
