Italian to English translations [Non-PRO]
Italian term or phrase: coniato
referring to a new design/structure for the bottom of a saucepan
Franco
to coin
Explanation:
In this context could have two meanings and you must decide:
1. to invent or create - especially to "coin a phrase"
2. coin from the meaning of money. To make a coin. In this case I was wondering if it could have to do with how the bottom of the pan is actually manufactured.
