stretch(ed) plastic Explanation: tensado m tautening, tightening Although as my colleague points out, it apparently means the opposite, it's commonly referred to as "stretch/ed" in my experience. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 8 mins (2008-04-25 10:20:13 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The covering is stretched tightly over the greenhouse framework. |
