Schatulle (do not translate) Explanation: As often is the case with occurrences that are inherently cultural in nature, the word is not translated. An explanation is added, either in parentheses or as a footnote. |

subject village /subject settlement Explanation: I see "subject villages" used, with no footnote or reference to the source term, in Ordinary Prussians Brandenburg Villagers-1500-1840, William W. Hagen, Cambridge Univ.Press 2002 - It appears in his conclusion - page 646 - so maybe there is a footnote when it first appears in the text, but I do not see "Schattull-" in his index. (web reference below has other helpful related vocabulary) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2013-09-30 18:13:36 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Forgot to mention, there is no single English word to cover the many compounds or the word Schatulle (its many meanings include: privy purse of a monarch, ie. private funds). Often you need target text resources related to manor life in England, serfdom, tenant farming, etc., in order to locate the appropriate equivalent translation for your ST context.
