Spanish term

tamaño infantil

Spanish to English Other Education / Pedagogy application documents
Dos fotografías tamaño infantil blanco y negro (No instantánea). I think that it would be something like this but what do you think? Two black and white passport sized photographs. No Polaroid or instant prints. I don´t like child-sized and in any case, I don´t think that there are child sized photos!

Any chance you can clarify with your client?

"Passport photos" sounds good to me. I guess they mean 2x2 inch.

2.5 X 3.0 cm., 1" X 1 1/4" (approx.)

Lo único que puedes hacer es poner la medida, pues que yo sepa no existe término equivalente en inglés.

Además no es exactamente igual la medida en todas las referencias, eso lo dejo a tu criterio.

agree Erin DeBell : REFERENCE: fotografías tamaño infantil (rectangulares, blanco y negro de 2.5 cm. X 3.0 cm.) Beat me to it! You could say mini-photos (list required size here).

Gracias, Kirendall.
agree Margaret Schroeder : CW, in Mexico, "tamaño infantil" is a standard size offered by every photographer in the country. In English there is no standard name for it, so you have to just give the dimensions. http://mx.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=2006071119001...

child size

I know you didn´t want to use this term, but "tamaño infantil" doesn´t exist in English, they are pictures that are slightly smaller than passport pictures

Kids' size is the more popular, mainly US version.
