St.

German to English Marketing Business/Commerce (general) A list of parts
Hi,

The context is a list of parts, some sort of Index:

Beschreibung | Bestellnummer | St. |
-------------------------------------------------
Halteband | 000-1001 | 1 |
Nasenauflage | 000-1002 | 1 |
2x Contact Guard | 000-2003 | 1 |
Eyepieces | 400-1299 | 1 |

...and so on, to 30 parts

What is "St." in German?
Is it "Pieces" in English?
At first, I thought it is "Seite" but why it is all the same?

Thank you,

Ray
Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Edith Kelly

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Steve Robbie Nov 8, 2021:
Pcs (pieces) is also possible.
Simon Vigneault Nov 8, 2021:
'Units' would work too.
Steve Robbie Nov 8, 2021:
Stück You asked what it stands for in German. It stands for "Stück" - item, unit, quantity.

Quantity

You could say 'pieces' but I would go with 'quantity' in this case (without abbreviating it). Likely it is the same because in each case the quantity is '1'.
Peer comment(s):

agree Leighton Jacobs : Yeah, quantity seems most appropriate here

Or unit
Peer comment(s):

agree writeaway : unit(s) works too as others have said since

neutral philgoddard : It can't be "each", because this doesn't appear to be a pricelist. "Units", in the plural, would work.
