Spanish term or phrase: cristalería
Hi again!
I wanted to know if the word "cristalería" is right and if the rest of the sentence sounds ok.
"Cristalería, si a consecuencia de la rotura de vidrios o cristales, la residencia quedara desprotegida en sus accesos"
My version is " Glassware, if the glasses or crystals breaks, the house is unprotected in its access"

  -> thank you Lisa! ;-)

agree  Colin Rowe: Yes! Or in answer to the asker's actual question: "No" and "Nooooo"...
44 mins
  -> lol! I considered that! Thanks Colin! ;-)

disagree  Claudia Quiroga: http://www.wordreference.com/es/en/translation.asp?spen=cris... - me refiero que la palabra Glazier se utiliza en un Taller no en una casa
1 hr
  -> check your own reference Claudia - "Glazier's" is right there! No, in this context it's a service that is offered to protect unoccupied properties.

disagree  Rosa Paredes: AMIS offers excellent affordable specialty insurance for: Glaziers, Glass Installers, Glass Installation, Glass Repair, Glass Removal, Auto Glass ... www.amisinsurance.com/.../glaziers-glass_installation_insur... - United States - Cordiales saludos
4 hrs
  -> you seem to have missed the discussion above! As Phil says, your disagree makes no sense!

agree  philgoddard: The apostrophe S looks a bit funny though. I'd just say glazier. Chactada, you need to explain properly why you disagree - your entry doesn't make sense.
