Lyes Bechkour (asker) Oct 5, 2005:
I am sorry, but I couldn't provide the context at the beginning and I didn't have enough time to explain everything. Next time I will try to provide the proper context. Thank you again.
Fuad Yahya Oct 5, 2005:
Next time you post a question, please provide proper context, especially now that you know what context means. Thank you.

This is from Oz, based on what Lyes said. A "soft-grip" handle is one that is gentle on your hand, does not rub and carries/fits comfortably. This is why I agreed with Yaser's response. I hope this helps a bit.
Fuad Yahya Oct 1, 2005:
If it is a handle in a machine, then what is the machine, and how does one use the handle? For what purpose?
Lyes Bechkour (asker) Oct 1, 2005:
You are right Nesrin, I discovered the contexte little by little. ���� ��� ����� ��� ��������
Nesrin Oct 1, 2005:
As you see Lyes, there is always some kind of context, even if it appears that there's none . It is a part of a machine, and it appears from your document that it concerns some kind of handle. That is already quite a lot of context.
Lyes Bechkour (asker) Oct 1, 2005:
Unfortunately,there is nothing about it in the reference document, but according to what I have in the document to be translated, it's about a "handle".
Fuad Yahya Oct 1, 2005:
Is this a part of a machine? Is it some kind of a handle, a vice-type mechanism, or something else? Do you know what is "soft" about it? Is it soft to the touch, or is soft in some other sense?
Lyes Bechkour (asker) Oct 1, 2005:
Not exactely, but some parts of the machines are mentioned.
Fuad Yahya Oct 1, 2005:
You mean there is a machine called "soft grip"?
Lyes Bechkour (asker) Oct 1, 2005:
I am sorry I don't have any contexte because the document concerns the names of machines but I have a reference document. The answer of Shazly is very convincing. Thank you all
Alaa Zeineldine Oct 1, 2005:
No one can translate this correctly, unless they have a firmer grip on the subject. That's a case in point.
Fuad Yahya Sep 30, 2005:
You need to inform your client that without context, the phrase is meaningless and cannot be translated. If they provide you with context, you can then share it with us.
