OK. Thanks. That's an option, but I would like to retained the original structure and provide a translation for "a roccia" as well, if it exits.
valentina.p May 9, 2013:
I feel so. Hopefully someone else will confirm or dismiss my interpretation.
marisascopas (asker) May 9, 2013:
so, just to be clear, are you saying that "lavorazione a roccia o Goodyear" can be translated as "Goodyear welt construction (process)" that is that they are the same thing?
valentina.p May 9, 2013:
Yes, though I also think you could leave out "process", that's why I put it in brackets.
marisascopas (asker) May 9, 2013:
What is the translation of 'lavorazione a roccia'? Are you saying that the translation of 'lavorazione a roccia' is Goodyear welt construction process?
