12 corvette
сущ.; Mej., SK, DT 41. транслит. корвет2. «карманчик»; кошелёк, маленькая сумочкаShe nodded and held out what the folk of Mejis called a corvette—“little packet” was the literal definition; “little purse” was the practical one. These small leather accessories, big enough for a few coins but not much more, were more often carried by ladies than gentlemen, although that was not a hard-and-fast rule of fashion. — Она кивнула и протянула ему некий предмет, который жители Меджиса называли “маленький карман”, точнее – кошелек. Шили их из кожи, места в них хватало лишь на несколько монет, и пользовались ими по большей части женщины, но не возбранялось носить в карманах и мужчинам. (ТБ 4)
