peer agreement (net): +2
peer agreement (net): +2keep engaged Explanation: I think you are right. I would prefer 'keep' for simplicity's sake. I would also refer to the 'moyens de blocage' as 'locking devices'. It's difficult to say -lack of context - but perhaps these devices are 'primary and secondary locking devices'? So my phrase would be: "...keep the secondary locking device engaged in the primary locking device." |
