(apolegamy =) general connectivity Explanation: I guess that Chinese people use the term of apolegamy for connecting something in general or adaptable way. It may be came from a + pole + gamy. |

选配 optional Explanation: Hi, antoine101, actually it's really an interesting question. I also notice that in many Chinese sites "apolegamy" have something to do with "选配(optional)" , but not "性选择". "选配" and "性选择"carry totally different meaning in most cases, and "选配" is a technical term actually. For example, if a part of a device is optional, it will be sometimes marked as "选配" in its operation manual . In this case, 3 diameter specifications are given and one can choose any one of them to use, so they are optional. |
