Hall of Residence / Student Residence Explanation: Colegio Mayor Universitario es un centro para estudiantes de universidad que suele estar al cargo de una orden religiosa. Se diferencia de la Residencia universitaria porque esta útlima no suele ser llevada por una orden religiosa. POr otro lado antes del Colegio Mayor está el Colegio Menor (también en ordenes religiosas). Yo lo traduciría con el genérico "Hall of Residence". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-07-02 23:39:51 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Perdona, se me olvidaba. El Colegio Menor, es simplemente el colegio dondelos niños de hasta 18 años bien pueden dormir o no. En Colegio Mayor el internado es obligatorio. No creo que éxista un equivalente inglés. Boarding School sería quizá el equivalente para Colegio Menor. |
