Help with translation for gusset

LOCONNOR · 10-29-2004, 02:35 PM

Could anyone please try and help me translate the word gusset into French, Italian and Spanish?
In dictionaries there are different words used, but I mean gusset in terms of depth of an object, eg. not height or width, but the other dimension!

Please try!

cheers!

Hi Loconnor

in french you just say "profondeur"
in italian you go with "profondità"

and wait for somebody else, I don't speak spanish at all

In sewing language, "gusset" it's "cuchillo, cuchilla, nesga, escudete", a kind of triangular piece of a garment. If the sense is the mentioned by FD, litterally "profondeur" it's "profundidad", or "fondo" (of a concavity). "Profundidad" is employed mainly with measurements, for example:

"El submarino está a 200 metros de profundidad", or "la profundidad de este pozo es de 10 metros", or "la caja mide 50 cm de ancho X 100 de largo X 30 de profundidad".

Perhaps another synonymous can be "tiro" (in a pair of breeches), "hondura" ("en lo más hondo de mi corazón" = in the depth of my heart, my soul), or "calado" (in a ship).

If you have any question, shoot!
