manufacturing
The French term 'fabrication' corresponds to the English word 'manufacturing.' It refers to the process of converting raw materials into finished goods on a large scale, often through the use of machinery and assembly lines. This term is used across various industries, from automotive to pharmaceuticals, to describe the production phase where products are made ready for the market. In French, 'fabrication' can also imply the creation of more abstract concepts such as 'fabrication d'une histoire,' which translates to 'manufacturing of a story,' indicating the construction or development of a narrative.
