Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (2): GILLES MEUNIER, B D Finch

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

il s'agit je crois de cette pièce là. Ce n'est pas toujours facile d'avoir des images de ce que je suis en train de traduire. J'ai trouvé en cherchant sur Google la traduction "écusson" qui se réfère souvent à Ebay.

1. La source ne parle pas de l'emblème sur le capot, mais du disque qui entoure les interrupteurs sur le tableau de bord
2. "Blason" n'est en rien la "terminologie Jaguar" de toutes façons, comme le montrent les Ghits..

dans la "référence" http://lieuxdits.free.fr/logauto.html, "blason" est utilisé dans les contextes suivants :
"blason des VISCONTI."
"- Le blason de la Bavière - "
"Le blason de la ville de Lyon -"
"Le blason de la ville de Stuttgart"
L'article concerne les logos des marques, qui sont apposés sur la carrosserie. C'est un contexte très différent de celui du texte source, qui, une nouvelle fois, concerne le petit disque à la base des interrupteurs sur le tableau de bord.

En outre, il ne suffit pas qu'un mot apparaisse sur un site automobile (https://fr.motor1.com/news/237940/jaguar-fin-blason-r/), pour que ce mot devienne "la terminologie Jaguar".
