Dear Pieter, es gibt doch nichts zu entschuldigen, das belebt doch das Lernen und die Kommunikation 👍🥰

by anitafunny 4 months, 4 weeks agoActually "chased" is the right word here. "Chased," in the context of gold and silver, refers to a metalworking technique where designs are created by hammering the metal from the front using punches and a hammer to create a relief or textured pattern. It also agrees with the original text in English.
