Lithuanian term

paštomatai

Lithuanian to English Tech/Engineering Telecom(munications)
Kaip verstumėte „paštomatas“, kai kalbama apie savitarnos pašto dėžutes, į kurias įdedate siuntinį, apmokate vietoje ir jums išduodamas kodas. Arba iš kurių turėdami kodą galite atsiimti siuntinį.

Valters Feists May 15, 2014:
"dėžutė" = "compartment" For the meaning of one “dėžutė”, you could use “compartment” in English.

Examples:
(1)
“For each individual parcel, customers will be able to choose delivery to a compartment of a My Post 24 automated parcel terminal…”
http://www.post.ch/en/post-startseite-new/post-archive/2013/...

(2)
“If the destination is full, the parcel is diverted to the nearest booth with free compartments or to the nearest post office. It is also diverted to the post office if it is too large to fit into the compartments.”

Valters Feists May 15, 2014:
“automated [automatic] parcel terminals” ... is also used in the Baltics and in the nearby Poland (regarding the Polish company supplying them to 9 countries).

“Photo/Galleries/26.02.2013 - Logibox automatic parcel terminals”

“All things considered, automated parcel terminals project is one of the most challenging and interesting UAB „Hansab“ project in terms of cemplexity and strict deadlines.” (along with other synonyms)

O kaip dėl "self-service parcel terminals" arba tiesiog "parcel terminals"?

self-service terminals

Post24 paštomatai, arba savitarnos siuntų terminalai, yra Estijos pašto sumanymas Lietuvoje. Unipak yra Post24 partneris. Jų svetainėje vartojamas terminas self-service terminals:

"Post24 is convenient and modern way to send and receive parcels
using self-service terminals for private and business customers."
http://www.unipak.lt/eng/post24

Pačiame Post24 angliškame puslapyje vartojamas ir terminas "self service parcel machines ":
POST24 is self service parcel machines network
in the Baltic countries
https://www.post24.lt/Post24

Toje pačioje svetainėje, naujienų skyriuje apie Estijos paštą vartojamas terminas "parcel terminals"
"New, always open Post24 parcel terminals are equipped with a bigger screen and have more lockers. The capacity of parel terminals will be increased by 40%."
https://www.post24.lt/index.php?article_id=147&page=12&actio...

"parcel terminals" terminas vartojamas latvių naujienų tarnybos svetainėje http://www.baltic-course.com/eng/good_for_business/?doc=8467...

Taip pat šios, Post24, svetainės puslapyje vartojamas ir dar vienas terminas: "parcel lockers"
The most important achievements of 2012 were launching of the network of Post24 parcel lockers in Latvia and Lithuania, the increasing growth of e-services, and acquisition of Lithuanian courier company Unipakas.
https://www.post24.lt/index.php?article_id=145&page=12&actio...

Taigi variantai tokie:
1. "Self-service terminals"
2. "Parcel terminals"
3. "Parcel lockers"

Taigi vertimas nėra iki galo nusistovėjęs. Nuostabą kelia tai, kad paties paštomatų "autoriaus" Estijos pašto angliškoje svetainėje http://www.post.ee/map?lang=en angliško vartojimo nėra (arba neradau)

Jeigu vertimas susijęs su Baltijos šalimis, aš siūlyčiau labiau kreipti dėmesį į minėtus Baltijos šalių ir šalyse vartojamus angliškus terminus. Bent jau, kol angliškas terminas nėra nusistovėjęs. Aš pats esu susidūręs su vertimu ir galiu pasakyti, kad lyg ir linkstama į "parcel terminals". Norisi prikabinti "automated", tačiau tokios tendencijos nepastebėjau. Nors būtų logiška Pavyzdžio savo vertimo, deja, pateikti negaliu dėl konfidencialumo įsipareigojimo.

automated parcel terminals

Sometimes they are referred to by a brandname “packstation”, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packstation .
... But it still belongs to the DHL Parcel Germany company.

The generic term that is gaining popularity (as the service itself) during the last few years is:
automated parcel terminal”.

They are chiefly used for “parcels and oversize letters” (as per Wikipedia). For letters, one would more likely use regular post or e-mail.
