place directly next to Explanation: 'Place directly next to' so that adjacent parts are in contact. That's the meaning in German. Maybe there is a more concise expression in English. Professional experience |

connect to Explanation: Here, the connotation is "verbinden" or "befestigen", IMHO. "To place next to" or "place alongside" really would mean "daneben legen". I also don't see the practical sense of it, in terms of the technology. Even if the two implements merely were to touch, without being mechanically hooked up, they still would be "connected". |
