| Nov 25, 2020 at 9:03 | comment | added | Andrea | I apologize for not giving context; I honestly thought the translation was going to be straightforward. It is from an ad that shows a crossbody phone "case" (softbody, not hard) with a strap; it allows you to free your hands when you don't want to/can't carry your phone. Sacoche is with an "s," and Google translates that as "saddlebags" (obviously not correct). Keep in mind the "case" is only the size of a cell phone. So, would you call it a "bag"? | |
| Nov 25, 2020 at 8:44 | comment | added | Laurent S. | Well, it would really help if you could give some context then, if you feel there's something wrong with this word in that context... That said, in Belgium French "sacoche" can indeed also mean "purse". I don't know for Quebec. | |
