'over time' kan forklares som 'gradvist' eller 'med tiden' - men jeg synes, denne danske formulering passer bedst i konteksten.
Example sentence:
Tingene blev bedre med tiden (things got better over time)
1 day 12 mins
lang tids
Pernille og Signe har ret i, at "med tiden", "gradvist" og "i tidens løb" er gode oversættelser. I dette tilfælde ville jeg dog vælge en mere fri oversættelse i stil med:
"Fodkontakten og dens indkapsling kan holde til lang tids jævnlig rengøring uden at blive beskadiget."
"Fodkontakten og dens indkapsling kan holde til lang tids jævnlig rengøring uden at blive beskadiget."
