Note: The diacritics don't appear in the words in the thread title because the forums don't support displaying them. The middle character in the first word is actually Unicode U+1EAF - which is a lower case a with a breve and acute. These forums do not support displaying it so I have used á instead. A few days ago I bought a tarpaulin and when I unwrapped it, I found taped inside a smaller tarpaulin with "cát mép" written on it: I thought this was a little strange and decided to find out what it meant. My first port of call was google translate, where I jammed in cat mep and switched it it Vietnamese (because I thought the diacritics on the vowels looked Vietnamese). It asked whether I meant cát mép and I said yes, and it told me it means "cutting edge". This doesn't solve the mystery though, does it? Why would there be a smaller, oranger tarp taped inside the tarp I bought with "cutting edge" written on it in Vietnamese? Please, can anyone shed some light on this? In case it matters, I bought it from Homebase in the UK.
