| durchgelaufende - worn Explanation: What is the Lackierungen applied to? My first thought was that this is floor and the varnish is durchgelaufen in the sense that shoes are durgelaufen - worn down through use. But without more context I could be up the creek on this one. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr 4 mins (2005-01-27 19:56:53 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I can\'t spell tonight - a) floors and b) durchgelaufen! |
