Can you be more specific? Nails are also fasteners. Propellers are also screws.
As a German fren, technical nuances are sometimes lost on me. Knew about the propellers, believe it or not but they're called 'Schraube' in German also. Depending on context, the word can stand for a propeller or e.g. an M8 'fastener'.
A screw is not a fastener, Klaus. A fastener is some do-dad thing-a-ma-jig that isn't a screw or a nail.
Do-Dad Thingamajig? I can only get so erect, honey.
An M8 is technically a bolt or machine screw?
German
THAT explains such an odd question...I only say fastener if a) It says so on the package, or b) I for some reason don't know the name of said fastener, but know that it fastens
