Translation[edit]
The standard translation for the German "Kampf" is fight, not battle. Battle is usually the equivalent for the German "Schlacht". "Kampf" is smaller than "Schlacht", more locally limited. A literal translation of "Kanalkampf" would be 'Channel Fight'.
Recent edits[edit]
@Motacilla: I'm not sure that altering steamer to steamship adds anything but having got Jordan, Roger W. (2006) [1999]. The World's Merchant Fleets 1939: The Particulars and Wartime Fates of 6,000 Ships (2nd ed.). London: Chatham/Lionel Leventhal. ISBN 978-1-86176-293-1. recently I will go through the article to check the details of the ships mentioned. I'll have a butchers at Rohwer, Jürgen; Hümmelchen, Gerhard (2005) [1972]. Chronology of the War at Sea, 1939–1945: The Naval History of World War Two (3rd rev. ed.). London: Chatham. ISBN 978-1-86176-257-3. too. Regards Keith-264 (talk) 23:20, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
Thankyou for your message. "Steamer" is somewhat colloquial, like "motorbike", or "veggie". And although the meaning is not ambiguous in this context, I have a "steamer" to cook my vegetables. Best wishes, Motacilla (talk) 08:27, 22 June 2024 (UTC).
