Spanish term

hogar (Colombian Spanish)

Non-PRO Spanish to English Other Sports / Fitness / Recreation Football
Does "hogar" have a special meaning in Colombian Spanish? This is for an SAP system, internal procedure for providing beverage packaging and containers to clients, i.e. companies, not individuals. "Home" just makes no sense at all here.

Colombian Spanish to US English.


Original
Colocación de envase masivo sin préstamo espontáneo: cuando se requiere colocar envases masivamente para zonas Entregadoras y de Autoventa con dispositivo móvil y se tenga una autorización previa de la planta o CEDI para realizarla sin la habilitación de la funcionalidad de préstamos espontáneos, se deberá registrar en una planilla manual la venta efectuada del producto a colocar con su respectiva cantidad.

Rough draft - (not happy with parameterized, waiting to see what exactly they mean)
Provision of containers to the home: A special procedure is used which must be parameterized in the central system. A generic client is assigned the maximum permissible number of elements to be loaned in range of dates that must also be entered.
Proposed translations (English)
2 Placement of container in its location

"Could it mean containers for home or domestic use?"
That's the problem I have. There is no mention anywhere of providing containers to anyone but salespeople and companies.

Wrong source text I copied the wrong source text to the question. Here is the right one. And yes, it's not football.

Colocación de envase al hogar: se realiza un procedimiento especial que requiere hacer una parametrización en el sistema central, donde, para un cliente genérico, se asigna la cantidad máxima permitida de los elementos a prestar para un rango de fecha que también deberá parametrizarse.

It looks to me as though
(a) Sports / Football in the subject heading is left over from a previous question and is not applicable.
(b) The wrong paragraph was accidently copied from the ST and the one that should have been copied has "hogar" where the draft translation has "home".

Having said that, the Diccionario de americanismos gives:

"hogar.
a. ǁ ~. fórm. Co. Se usa en un documento administrativo para designar la dedicación de la mujer a las tareas domésticas."

I can't immediately see the relevance of this, but there it is.

Could it mean containers for home or domestic use?

@ Asker Maybe I'm blind but 2 things come up in this question. 1) I don't read "hogar" anywhere in the original text. 2) I read "home" in the translation which has almost nothing to do whatsoever with the original.

Hi Ben,
Where does "hogar" occur in the source text?
Charles Davis Apr 26, 2015:
Football Not to mention the at present obscure connection with football. Is this designed to give our brains a Sunday workout?
Charles Davis Apr 26, 2015:
Good question. And I also find it difficult to match the rough draft to the original. It doesn't seem to be the same paragraph.

Could you sort this out, Ben?
liz askew Apr 26, 2015:
Hi, where does it say "hogar" in your Spanish extract?

???? Obvious confusion in this ageing brain.....

Placement of container in its location

Hi Ben. From the source text I gather that "hogar" is referring to its correct location, although I might add that I've translated several text from Colombian Spanish in the past and don't recall having come across the use of "hogar" in this manner.
