looking for a better term than >glasses case<
Barbara Harder-Lutz
Deutschland
Glasses case (definitely UK English)
Erklärung:
I know you said you wanted a better term, but as far as the most informal term, I think your suggestion is spot on! I certainly put my glasses in a 'glasses case'. Nothing wrong with the other two suggestions of course, but both sound more formal to me.
