I'm doing a translation from German to English, but because the sentence is so long, I keep losing track of the meaning and what each part of the sentence is referring to.
Here's the sentence:
"Ersatzteile bezeichnet die Teile und Materialien von Fahrzeugen, welche bei Defekt oder Verschleiß als Bestandteil der in der Fahrzeug- und Wartungsdokumentation definierten Wartungs- oder Reparaturarbeiten am Fahrzeug oder in einer Großkomponente oder Komponente gegen ein Neuteil ausgewechselt werden und selbst nicht weiter aufgearbeitet oder repariert werden (kleinste tauschbare Einheit)."
I've gotten most of it, but I'm still unsure about "oder in einer Großkomponente oder Komponente." Can anyone help me? |

Hi, Großkomponente means a major component (e.g. you dont have to exchange the whole component, but only a small part of this component), where component stands for exchange of the whole thing :-)
Hehe - hope that helps a little. |

| Hi, welcome to TranslatorPub.com and within our Community. The price ranges are pretty wide currently. Do you start off in the UK or do you already have a profound experience? |

| Hi - I believe the current price is averaging around 40 GBP. I´m not so sure with Arabic, as there are a lot of competitors on the market. |

You are welcome. I`m aware that your chances are currently really good if you have a Security Clearance. This will allow you to receive huge amounts of work from different government contracted agencies in the UK.
I´m not sure about the process, but I suggest that you´ll have a look into that as well. |
