Como dizer "Sabão e Sabonete" em inglês

Pessoal,

Complementando,

Apesar de "soap" ser definido tanto como "sabão" quanto como "sabonete", "soap" parece ser mais usado como "sabonete", ao passo que "detergent" representa o nosso "sabão" de lavar louças, roupas, etc., e pode ser líquido ou em pó.

Boa sorte!

sabonete em barra é "soap" (como o Thomas mencionou), sabonete líquido é "shower gel"

sabão em pó para lavar roupas - washing up powder,
sabão líquido para lavar roupas - washing up detergent
detergente - washing up or detergent

detergent is a general word for liquid or powder used for washing dishes, clothes e etc.

People, for what I know, can't find in the shops of the U.K. soap for washing clothes , like those we can buy in Brazil, and
it seems to me that there's any other word for sabonete and sabão than simply "soap" , "soap bar", "bar of soap"...

Eu diria : Soap and Toilet Soap



cheers !

Only one word for that.

Body soap = soap you rub most of your body with.
Facial soap = soap you (gently) rub your face with.

Os dois são "soap" e vc pode usar tão somente "soap", pq vc será entendido dentro do contexto (assim como se "left" é a esquerda ou o passado do "to leave").

Mas, se vc quiser um diferencial, vc pode dizer "toilet soap".

For "sabonete", how about "bar of soap"? In the USA, bars of soap are used to cleanse the body. If there is an exception, I can't think of it. In Latin America, some bars of soap are used for clothing, floors, etc. In other words, they are too harsh, too strong for bathing.

The strongest bar soap in the USA that comes to mind is "Lava", a very strong soap popular among mechanics for getting grease and grime off the hands. I don't think Martín Fierro would put it on his face. Well, maybe Martín would...
