Gracias ¡Gracias, Taña!!
M. C. Filgueira Dec 20, 2011:
Taña tiene probablemente razón. Se trata probablemente de las dimensiones.

En castellano no se dice "dimensiones físicas" (pleonasmo), sino simplemente "dimensiones", puesto que el término "dimensión" significa en este contexto "Medida de una magnitud en una determinada dirección. Las dimensiones del salón. (del diccionario de la Real Academia Española).

Saludos cordiales.

neutral M. C. Filgueira : "Dimensiones físicas" es un pleonasmo. En castellano se dice simplente "dimensiones". Salduos y felices fiestas.
