Note from asker:
| Thank you, Laurel. I was also interested to have a comment that the French is 'absolutely not French', as it does seem very clumsy to me. I had assumed that this was because it is more or less in note form, but it could also be that it is just inarticulate for various reasons. I think it is best to use 'items', as that fits the context slightly better and is more general, but your suggestions are possibly more accurate in some contexts as a translation. |

: good luck because the original french text is absolutely not french or definitely written by someone not in the field. No wonder why some translations are so poor... with such a bad quality original text one can not translate it properly

Note from asker:
| Thank you, Drmanu. This suggestion would appear to be correct in the context, for the first example above. To my mind, though, it does not fit in the second example, in spite of being very accurate to the context involved in the text. |
