[abschließender] geschweifter Giebel Dutch [end] gable Explanation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dutch_gable "A Dutch gable or Flemish gable is a gable whose sides have a shape made up of one or more curves..." Re abschliessend, I'm not sure what this adds to Giebel, although we do speak of an 'end gable' in English. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day 5 hrs (2018-09-21 00:40:29 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- Curly gable, eh? My alternative proposal: Gable with twiddly bits. |
