Source text - English On the roof of the world, shoe horned into the grand Himalaya, Bhutan, the thunder Dragon, is a fiercely independent kingdom. With an area slightly larger than Switzerland, there are only about 600,000 people. The name Bhutan appears to derive from the ancient Indian term "Bhotanta" which means the end of land of the Bhots, it could also extend from the Sanskrit word Bhu'uttan or highland. The Kingdom lies east of Nepal and west of the Indian state of Arunachal Pradesh. Located in the heart of the high Himalayan mountain range, Bhutan is a land-locked country surrounded by mountains in north and west. The rugged east, visited by few Western travellers, the high Himalaya in the northern steppes separates the kingdom from Tibet.
Isolated from the outside world till the 1960s, Bhutan manages to retain all the charm of the old world. Like timeless images from the past,the traveller encounters the full glory of this ancient land through its strategic monastic fortresses known as Dzongs, numerous ancient temples, monastries and stupas which dot the countryside, prayer flags which flutter along the high ridges, wild animals which abundant in the dense forest, foamy white water falls which are like the real showers, and warm smiles of its friendly people. Each moment is special as one discovers a country which the people have chosen to preserve in its magical purity.
Translation - Italian Sul tetto del mondo, abbarbicato sulla catena dell'Himalaya, c'è un piccolo regno fiero e indipendente: il Bhutan, la terra del Drago del Tuono. La sua superficie è leggermente maggiore di quella della Svizzera, ma gli abitanti sono solo 600.000. Sembra che il suo nome derivi da un'antica parola indiana, "Bhotanta", che significa "fine della terra dei Bhots", anche se probabilmente proviene dalla parola sanscrita per "altopiano", "Bhu'uttan". Si tratta di un piccolo stato senza sbocchi sul mare, a est del Nepal e a ovest dello stato indiano di Arunachal Pradesh, circondato a nord e ovest da montagne. Negli impervi territori dell'est, raramente visitati dai turisti occidentali, lo separano dal Tibet le steppe himalayane.
Il Bhutan è rimasto isolato dal resto del mondo fino agli anni '60 e mantiene ancora il fascino di un mondo antico. Quello che il visitatore incontra nel suo viaggio sembra arrivare direttamente dal passato; e così si trova a contemplare gli antichi monasteri fortezza, gli Dzong, nel pieno della loro gloria, la campagna costellata di templi, monasteri e stupa, le bandiere di preghiera che sventolano sulle alte creste, la fauna selvatica che abbonda nelle fitte foreste, le bianche cascate… e infine il calore e i sorrisi della gente. Ogni momento è speciale quando si scopre un paese il cui popolo ha deciso di preservare la sua magica purezza.
English to Italian: Refrigerators and freezers catalog description General field: Marketing Detailed field: Furniture / Household Appliances
Source text - English The Appliance APP12, AP23, and ABC123
These refrigerators and freezers have two compartments of equal size. The Appliance APP12: one compartment is a refrigerator and the other a freezer. The APP12 can be ordered with the freezer on the top or on the bottom. The freezer is twice as large as the freezer in the RF16; however, the refrigerator compartment is slightly smaller than that of the RF16. The APP12 often eliminates the need to buy a separate freezer. Like the RF16, this model is typically mounted on a 13-inch high cabinet.
The APP12 uses two quiet and highly efficient fans to cool the exterior cooling coils. The Appliance AP23: a refrigerator-only model with two equal-sized refrigerator sections. It does not need defrosting and incorporates a passive (no fans) cooling system.
The Appliance ABC123: our largest freezer-only unit.
It has two equal-sized compartments incorporating two independently controlled cooling systems. One compartment may be turned off to conserve energy when its storage space is not required. It uses the same fans as the APP12 to cool its cooling coils.
Translation - Italian Modelli: APP12, AP23 e ABC123
Questi frigoriferi e congelatori dispongono di due scomparti di uguali dimensioni. Nel modello APP12 uno scomparto è adibito ad uso frigorifero, l'altro a congelatore. APP12 è disponibile sia con freezer nello scomparto inferiore e frigo in quello superiore, sia viceversa. Rispetto al modello RF16, la dimensione del freezer è raddoppiata, mentre il frigorifero è leggermente più piccolo. Grazie ad APP12, spesso non è più necessario acquistare un freezer separato. Come per RF16, questo modello viene solitamente montato sopra ad armadietti da 13 pollici (33 cm).
Il modello APP12 raffredda le serpentine esterne utilizzando due ventole silenziose ma efficienti. Il modello AP23 contiene due scomparti di uguali dimensioni, entrambi ad uso frigorifero; non necessita di sbrinamento e dispone di un sistema di raffreddamento passivo (senza ventole).
Il modello ABC123 è l'ammiraglia delle unità solo freezer.
Dispone di due scomparti di uguali dimensioni, ciascuno con il proprio sistema di raffreddamento controllato in modo indipendente. È possibile disattivare uno scomparto per risparmiare energia quando è lasciato vuoto. Le serpentine sono raffreddate utilizzando le stesse ventole applicate al modello APP12.
