Portuguese term or phrase: Departamento de Quinquilharia
Bom dia

Gostaria saber como traduzir para Espanhol QUINQUILHARIA. É para uma tradução dos departamentos de um Hipermercado.
Não é bazar, pois já existe um Departamento de Bazar... portanto não sei a que equivale Quinquilharia em Espanhol.

Muito obrigada pela ajuda

Menaje de casa
Explanation:
Es un concepto general que va desde utensilios metálicos de cocina (menaje de cocina: cacerolas, cubiertos,etc.) a muebles, manteles, accesorios y a todo lo de casa.

La quincallería es género barato y de segunda mano e implica "mala calidad" o "viejo". Yo no lo usaría para rotular el departamento de un hipermercado donde venden mercancía nueva.

De hecho, hoy en día donde he visto quincallerías (España y Francia) se trataba siempre de negocios de segunda mano de compra y venta de cacharros de todo tipo, pero nunca supermercados o comercios en centros comerciales.

Con "menaje de casa" siempre aciertas.

neutral  Moisés Jomarrón de la Cerda: Também pode ser mas em Espanhol esse departamento só vende artigos de ornamentação. Acho que a "Quincalla" abrange mais coisas.

disagree  DANII: El término bisutería se refiere a objetos de adorno como collares, pulseras...etc

No me parece. Me parece que mercería es donde compras cosas tipo botones y para arreglar ropa y eso.

Departamento de Enseres Domésticos también sería una solución. Generalista y poco terminológica pero solución al fin y al cabo.
