a part-translation

[edit]

Hi, it would be interesting to add a category of 'partial translations', as well as check what's the technical term for them. Thanks in advance. --Backinstadiums (talk) 16:00, 22 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

(soccer) The playing of the ball between the legs of an opponent.

[edit]

Could sb. add the reason for this 'metaphoric' sense? --Backinstadiums (talk) 16:01, 22 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

It is debated. See Nutmeg_(football)#Origin_of_the_term. Equinox 23:53, 16 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
