What is 'Pre-Wash' (etc.) in French and German?
Er, I hope this question isn't considered off-topic for this newsgroup
but can anyone tell me what "Pre-wash", "Main Wash", and "Conditioner" are in other European languages? (particularly French and German.

Hello John,
In French: Prewash: Pre-Lavage Wash: Lavage Conditioner: Assouplissant In German: Prewash: Vorwaschen Wash: Waschen Conditioner: Weichspülmittel If you are using a European frontloader with a detergent drawer, the compartment marked "I" is for the prewash, the compartment marked "II" is for the main wash and the compartment with the flower is for the fabric softener. Only a few of those washers have a compartment for bleach which will be marked with a triangle with the letters "cl". Hope this helps, Louis |

As a matter of interest, does anyone know if it is a 'standardized' flower which appears on European frontloaders or does every manifacturer pick their own? -- John Latter Model of an Internal Evolutionary Mechanism (based on an extension to homeostasis) linking Stationary-Phase Mutations to the Baldwin Effect. http://members.aol.com/jorolat/TEM.html 'Where Darwin meets Lamarck?'
