Subject: camsiled lit. Пожалуйста, помогите перевести.camsiled Слово встречается в следующем контексте: Upstairs, Andrew's room was a small camsiled apartment with a brass bed, a yellow varnished chest of drawers, and a bamboo table bearing a basin and ewer. Заранее спасибо |
...It seems "camsile" is an alternative to "camceil" (also *NOT* in Chambers) with a cross-reference to "coom". Finally, "coomceiled" actually *IS* in Chambers, under the headword coom(2), as follows: "_adj_ *coom'ceiled* said of an attic room with the inside ceiling sloping from the wall.
