German term

Anbaurutsche

German to English Tech/Engineering Other
This is part of a website i am translating on slides - there are different classifications such as Hangrutsche, Abenteuersrutsche and leiterrutsche. However, the category Anbaurutsche i am not sure how as to translate - extension slide sounds strange to me but I could be wrong.

Any help would be much appreciated

Unfortunately there are no pictures - I only have the text but it is definitely an outdoor slide.

Hi Mark4444 Do you have any photos? What do you attach the slide to? "Attachable slide" is a possibility for a playroom, platform bed or jungle gym, but it help to have so more to go on.

Proposed translations

add-on slide

came to mind first. Like one you can attach to a child's gym in the backyard.
Peer comment(s):

agree pj-ffm : I think both "add-on" and "attachable" work equally well here (as per my explanation on Ramey's post).

attachable slide/slide attachment

Would be the clearest translation in my ears
Peer comment(s):

agree pj-ffm : Without a picture, I'm assuming this is a slide, without ladder or its own supporting structure, that can be optionally attached to an existing structure, e.g. a climbing frame or similar.

Yes, dear Watson, my conclusions precisely! Thank-you!
