Hi

Not deepen to my (still technical) contexts…
Sometimes, while translating from technical Russian, in order to express the meaning more precisely (in my view) I need to use derivatives from indicate in the following (different) ways:

(a function of some device) Detection and indication of <…>

(failure, type 1) Sudden stop of indication of <…>

(failure, type 2) False indications of <…>, obtained from <some device>, are displayed on …<say, on Control Panel, it does not matter here>.

(failure, type 3) Information on parameters and operating modes indicated on <some display> are [displayed?] blinking/flashing.

Can I? :)

Hi Tamara,

You don't half get technical. My little grey cells are in a tizzy. My only contribution would be to change: False indications of to False readings of.
