Exercise books, notepads and jotters Explanation: The above is how I would refer to them, but I believe sizes are standardised now, ie: A4, A5 and A6 notepads (or notebooks) Reference: http://www.whsmith.co.uk/StationeryAndCards/Notebooks.aspx |

notebook, small notebook, pocket-size notebook Explanation: Maybe even a diary-miniquadernetti, something along those line, I imagine, without context -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 18 hrs (2013-04-13 07:23:38 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Tks, according to your very interesting site, that would be it, quadernetto is 12/17 cm so miniquadernetti might be the size of a pocket notebook, but still bound according to picture, so not a jotter. Quadernetto can be translated as exercise book used long ago but to keep same category of articles, maybe notebook and the rest fit better |

notepads, notebooks and pocket notebooks Explanation: I think the usual categorising in the UK is as above, but of course this would not work if you have another "notepad" category. You could also say: large notebooks, notebooks and pocket notebooks or alternatively notebooks, exercise books and pocket notebooks Just a few suggestions. HTH! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 days (2013-04-17 08:41:36 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- Thanks William :-) |
