English term

at such a premium

English to Romanian Other Business/Commerce (general)
B&Q has had to adapt to the local needs andits Shanghai store operates differently from those in the UK. Garden centers, a key feature in the UK, play no part in the Chinese format. With space being at such a premium in cities like Shanghai, most Chinese live in small apartments without a garden.

Peer comment(s):

disagree Anca Buzatu : Este vorba despre o expresie idiomatica aici. Trebuie luat in calcul sensul constructiei in sine, si nu sensul lui "premium"
