raise Explanation: Weblio gives the translation 'nap raising' for 起毛 http://ejje.weblio.jp/content/起毛 So my suggestion for a translation of 「その鉤状部分が敷物の裏面または床面に起毛されているループ状のパイルに引っかかり」 is "the hook-shaped portions catch on loop-shaped pile that is raised on the top side or the floor side of the carpet..." |

stand erect Explanation: I think you are working with something to fastening material. According to the Encyclopaedia Britannica, pile is made of something, i.e. loops of wrap, that stand erect from the foundation or ground structure of the cloth, as you can see in the first URL below. For translating your text I think the article in the Wikipedia about the Velcro might be of help as in the second URL. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2012-06-05 20:43:06 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- “Raise” can be good in this context because it is a loop pile that stands erect. I would not go for “nap” in this case because it is rather hairy bits that stands erect, like a suede.
