A sedan is a type of horse-drawn carriage.
Berlin is a notion that comes from the French berline , itself derived from Berlin (that is, Berlin ). The concept refers, among other things, to a type of horse-drawn carriage that was created in the aforementioned city in Germany .
A sedan is a closed carriage that usually has four seats. Its body has a rounded design at the bottom and a square design at the top.
Origin of the sedan
The origins of the sedan can be found in a car that emerged in the middle of the 15th century in the Hungarian territory. These vehicles were characterized by having leather straps that held the box .
Over time , the way in which the box was suspended was modified, seeking greater comfort and safety. Thus, around 1670 , the sedan was born, which appealed to a novel suspension mechanism: leather straps were extended between the wheels by means of a winding system equipped with a brake located on the rear wheels.
In this way, unlike other carriages of the time, the sedan could travel at greater speed and in a safer manner. This is why it gained popularity in much of the European continent.
Berlina can be used as a synonym for sedan.
A kind of car
The Royal Spanish Academy ( RAE ) dictionary, on the other hand, indicates that a sedan is a car whose design includes four doors in the side areas . In colloquial language, sedan is often used as a synonym for sedan (the car that, in addition to the four doors, has an independent trunk or boot and has a fixed roof).
Before moving forward, it is important to note that a car is a vehicle that can move by itself on a common road since it does not require rails. This type of transport gets its propulsion thanks to an engine.
As for the saloon, it is a car with a body divided into three volumes. The rear window remains fixed because it is not part of the trunk lid, which is located separately from the cabin. There are four side doors.
The sedan in food
The idea of a berlin also appears linked to food . The term is used to refer to a sweet bun or bread that is also known as a berlin , a donut , a doughnut , or a doughnut .
Berliners are usually made with wheat flour, yeast, egg, lard, milk and sugar. They are usually fried in pork fat and may be covered with sugar, coconut or other products. There are also filled Berliners.
Sometimes, the concept of berlina is specifically linked to the spherical bun that is sprinkled with sugar , while the name donut or doughnut refers to those that are ring -shaped.
A brand of beer
Berlina , finally, is the name of an Argentine craft beer brand. It was founded in 2004 in the city of San Carlos de Bariloche and four years later it moved its production plant to Colonia Suiza , also in Patagonia .
Berlina currently produces around thirty types of beer, some of which include ingredients such as chocolate , pumpkin and mandarin. The company also has numerous bars of its own.
