Hi All,

On translating the book I have on the supply branch I came across a few words that I could not translate. Please can anybody help?

They are,

I-e uzup.
Druz. zam. kier.
ropa
oleje
opal

While Google spell check is ok for most of it, it doesn't get all of it,

Cheers,

Colin

I-e uzup. 1st re-supply
Druz. zam. kier. Military Police Traffic control section/squad
ropa Fuel (usually diesel)
oleje oil
opal ??? (show page so context could be established)

Hi GFC,

I think it may be to do with coal and coke, so i think it may translate as fuel?

still does not ring a bell, but probably fuel for kitchens or heating -

This is what Pogonowski shows: Uniwersalny Slownik Polsko-Angielski prof. Iwo Cypriana Pogonowskiego

Opal: actually pronounced opaw --- means literally fuel, I remember coal being called opal, also wood being used na opal (for fuel).

Hi there,

Thanks to you both for your answers. The dictionary link is great as i only have a English keyboard that doesn't have polish letters on it,

Cheers

Colin
