Une technologie permettant de sauter des passages indésirables ou de voir des passages en mode muet


Explanation:
Malheuresement, il y a des situations dans lesquelles en passant d'une langue à une autre, il faut expliciter car les termes dans la langue source sont tellement concis et se référant à tout un système ou une pratique, qu'essayer d'en faire une traduction aussi concise dans la ligue cible ne rimerait à rien pour le lecteur de cette dernière.
