| | OK, but what about that "äga"? Isn't that "estate", "land"? |

| | Well, yes, but in this context it seems to me that we are talking about a site. Am I wrong? |

| piasNúmero de Mensagens: 8113 | Yes, probably some place, since they are talking about protective shoes. But it doesn't say it's about a estate or site or even a place.
"No admittance for unauthorized persons."
You probably know better than me how to put it in English Lilian. |

| | What would be more common for a sign in English would be:
"No admittance - authorised persons only"
Does that convey the original? CC: pias |
