    Can anyone think of the context in which "im Griff" can be translated as "engaged"? If there is one, perhaps the entry could be adjusted to make it clearer.

    Vielleicht synonym zu "im Eingriff [tech.]"? Und könnte das "meshed" bedeuten?

    Can anyone provide an example or two of "im Griff" being used of gear teeth etc.?

    Since CM2DD is still wondering about 'im Griff,' here's a related question: Has anyone else ever heard 'to gear into' in this sense? Have we by any chance stumbled on another AE/BE thing?

    'Gear into' sounds weird to me; if it's BE or technical usage or something, it should be marked appropriately, and if not, it could possibly be deleted.

    But in any case, I would suggest adding some more common verbs.

    'Engage' in this sense can be both transitive and intransitive, I think. It might help to list the transitive sense separately to show the German preposition.

    Nearly all these could probably be marked both [tech.] and [fig.].


    In the other thread I also wondered about 'to catch' (intransitive, unlike the existing entry), but with 'gears' that might have two meanings: to engage (to catch in the right way), but also to snag or foul up, get caught on something and be prevented from moving (to catch in the wrong way).
