Las dos primeras también inician con "d", aunque te sugiero otra en caso de que no sea necesario respetar el inicio de palabra.

Asker: Gracias por tu aporte. Yo también estaba pensando "no dust" como el aspecto ético, pero al continuar con la traducción me doy cuenta que "waste" puede ser "despilfarro" y "dust" en ese caso puede ser "basura, suciedad", ya que el ejemplo está basado en un taller (mecánico).

Asker: Muchas gracias por tu ayuda.
