Marketing - Kosmetik, Schönheitspflege / Health and beauty | | Französisch Begriff oder Satz: attentes transversales | | I'm translating a piece of market research, conducted using groups of women from different countries. It talks about their skin problems and what they would like from products. "Transversal expectations" (which appears in the Proz glossary as the translation for a similar Spanish term) doesn't mean much to me. Could I just put "general expectations"? |
| | Notiz(en) an den/des Fragesteller(s)Cetacea: 6:20pm Apr 20, 2006: Since this is about women from different countries, could it mean "cross-cultural expectations"? At least that would make some sense... ;-) -
French Foodie: 6:29pm Apr 20, 2006: Cetacea has a good point, and your context may help you decide if this is best. Kate also has a good suggestion - the idea that these women have expectations in all areas. -
French Foodie: 6:30pm Apr 20, 2006: I.e., they don't just want a moisturizer, for example, they want an all-around skin care product, one that moisturizes, cleanses, leaves a healthy glow, smoothes out wrinkles, etc. etc. -
Fiona Paterson: 6:32pm Apr 20, 2006: Yes - I like all of the suggestions so far! I think it means that these women share expectations (they have the same expectations in common) - but I think Kate's suggestions still fit. I will need to reflect!!!
Debbie Tacium Ladry: 6:36pm Apr 20, 2006: well, then what about "shared expectations"? ;-) -
Fiona Paterson: 6:44pm Apr 20, 2006: That's really good - "shared" doesn't have the double meaning that "common" does

| | common or shared expectations | Erklärung:
I take this to mean expectations that intersect, that are shared. As Cetacea suggests, cross-cultural could work, but here is a slightly different meaning. The references below support this, since they talk about surveys and research among different groups or departments.
(You'll have to search the pdf's for "transversale.")
Also, if this is a research report, from the context you may even be able to say, Executive Summary -- because I imagine it goes on to list shared expectations.
