Hallo,
besteht im Deutschen ein Unterschied zwischen autoroute und autostrade? (Übersetzung eines Vernehmungsprotokolls für die belgische Staatsanwaltschaft). Vielen Dank im voraus!

Explanation:
Définition du Grand Robert:

autostrade = autoroute, mais il s'agit d'un terme tombé en désuétude. Par contre, emploi normal ds le contexte italien (< autostrada).
Donc en alld: autostrade = autoroute = Autobahn

Autobahnen


Explanation:
Autostrade ist Plural von autostrada, italienisch fuer Autobahn [sorry, bei Umlauten stuerzt in dieser Schnittstelle mein Computer ab!]. Ich denke, es geht um die Autobahnen verschiedener Laender, daher Aufzaehlung autoroutes, autostrade ... moeglicherweise auch noch Autobahnen u. Motorways? :) Je nachdem kannst/solltest du das Wort sogar i.d. it. Originalschreibweise lassen.

Hoffe, dies hilft!
