philgoddard Mar 6, 2019: Another tip If you Google this term here in the US, the first three hits give translations. Even if this is different where you are, it's very easy to find the answer by looking in online dictionaries.
Alexander Schleber (X) (asker) Mar 6, 2019: Context Reverso Vielen Dank für den Tipp, Anna. Ich werde es sofort probieren. ;o)
Anna Augustin Mar 6, 2019: Linguee Nur als Tipp unter Kollegen: Statt Linguee ist Context Reverso m. M. n. eine bessere Wahl. Dort hättest du in diesem Fall drei Beispiele für strike knob gefunden :-) Viel Erfolg noch!
