Technical terms translations

Hi everybody,
You certainly noticed that several nationalities are present in this forum.
And sometimes it's difficult to understand some technical terms.

So, i submit this TT33 legended scheme in french, and a mute one.

You can download the second picture and add the legend in your own language(*).
And, show us the result.











(*) you can download the first too, of course!  

Here is a frist try in english.
Parts 21, 23, are not translated because i don't know how to.
In french "Pin(*)" means "Axis" when a part rotate on it(**).
* Goupille

3 Frame/Hull
4 Barrel bushing
5 Extractor
6 Extractor pin (axis)
7 Extractor spring

Thank you smootik!
Some litterals translations can be funny sometimes. For example, "Hammer" when applied to gunsmishing gives "Chien" in french => Dog.

Absolutely, I had a laugh about that dog :-) It sometimes bites, maybe that's origin of the word?

Many Polish terms for gunsmithing are very specific and sound strange, a bit like from XIX century. They are not used much except mechanical design I think.

This is a really great idea!!

1. Lauf
2. Verschluss
3. Rahmen
4. Laufführung/Schlittenendstück
5. Hülsenauswerfer
6. Auswerfer-Haltebolzen
7. Auswerfer-Feder
8. Hinteres Visier/Kimme
9. Zündstift
10.Zündstift-Feder
11.Zündstiftsicherung
12.Lauf-Hebel
13.Hebel-Stift
14.Rückstossfeder
15.Rückstossfeder-Stecker
16.Rückstossfeder Führung
17.Abzug
18.Schlittenfang-Hebel
19.Schlittenfang-Hebelsicherung
20.Magazin-Halteknopf
21.Magazin-Halteknopf/hinteres Teil
22.Magazin-Halteknopf-Feder
23.Systemkasten
24.Hammer-Stift
25.Hammer-Feder
26.Hammer
27.Separator
28.Separator-Stift
29.Dorn

In french too!
@ smootik,
i tried to put the polish legend on the mute scheme, but i failed, because specials letters (ę ż ń ł)

@ Chris74,
Thank you very much, it's very interesting.
German terminology sounds really much technical. a lot of "suitcases words" (it was the term used by my German language teachers).

Another example, not specific of gunsmithing :
In english, you say "Wrench" (the tool), in french we say "Clé" (key)

Tanslation by Chris74, thanks to him

Here is the polish version.
Thanks to smootik!

Now, we wait for italian, and spanish version!

There is one Word, I always smile about it
Fees, from Shipping-fees...

In German there is a Word, sounds like the same: fies
Fies means unfair/nasty/bad
So ,PayPal fees are fies

Some german words are worst in french :
For example : In french a word for "Wildschwein kopf" => Hure
And the german "Pute" for turkey means whore in french.

Sorry for the outrageous drifting!
