Architecture | | Spanish term or phrase: en plata piso | Adherido al Castillo vivienda en plata piso de unos 140 m2 con gran terraza actualmente arrendado a los antiguos mayordomos.
Does this mean it has just one floor? |
| | Clarification request(s) and responseLuis Javier Otoya: 8:19pm May 27, 2008: Is it "en planta" instead of "en plata"?
Patricia Rosas: 8:19pm May 27, 2008: plata? is it "planta"?
psicutrinius: 8:22pm May 27, 2008: Decidedly, typo "habemus". "En planta" means this, one floor. "en plata" means "in silver". Not even Warren Buffett can afford that, I am afraid...

| | a single-floor dwelling | Explanation:
Firstly it must be planta as everyone agrees. The only thing that the text says is that it is one floor, not that the building is although it could be. The dwelling, not necessarily an apartment however, is of only one floor. You can have plata piso 1, planta piso 2, etc. Doesn't seem like there is a very fixed definition from what I googled

| a floor area
Explanation:
Assuming you're dealing with a typo and "Plata" should read "planta",then your text reads "...dwelling with a floor area of some 140m2..."
