English translation:tab, tag, tongue

Explanation:
...like the little tab stuck to a roll of fax paper or Saran Wrap to enable the paper/wrap to be unrolled with ease.
------------
Just checked in my kitchen and the plastic wrap lists as one of the features (woohoo!!):
"Starter Tab - finds start of roll"
so how about "starter tab"?
