Hi Anita,
I did flag this up but I'm sorry I didn't realise it had been added.
We all agreed that when linked to a landline 'un répondeur' is an answering machine.
Merci Maarten !
Bonne Continuation !

Anita, it looks like that has been added.
The one I don’t get is ‘ le réseau ‘ being translated as ‘ reception ‘.
As I understand it, réseau translates as network, and réception translates as reception.
