Which term corresponds to the translation of Anlange (Produktion) in production vocabulary?

• A. factory
• B. equipment
• C. plant
• D. workshop

Answer: (C)

Understanding which English term best translates a German production term for a facility helps you choose the right word when talking about where goods are made. Anlage (Produktion) refers to the production facility as a whole—the site, its layout, and the machinery installed there. In production vocabulary, that entire facility is called a plant, so the best fit is plant. A factory is close and often used similarly, but plant is the more formal, standard term in technical contexts. Equipment names the machines themselves, not the site, and a workshop is typically a smaller, hands-on workspace rather than a full-scale production site.
