CeeJay Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 We have a devis for an extension to our house, but some of the words used defy all well known dictionaries. So is there anyone out there who knows of a good dictionary.I have in mind terms such as:- hourdis,genoise,arrasement etcAlso I note that he has added TVA at 19.6%, from earlier discussion on this Forum I understood that 5.5% was still in force?

fromage Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Try the Oxford-Duden Pictorial French and English dictionary. Not just building terms but all sorts of other things too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
