  -> Thank you very much! "naval string" is oldfashioned lower class British English.
eens  Chris Hopley: Where do you get this info, Sven? Navel string is just one of those words that live in dictionaries, but are never used.

Uitleg:
First looked it up in a German-English dictionary (Nabelschnur in Langenscheidt).Then looked umbilical cord up in Wolters´ handwoordenboek Engels Nederlanda, which says navelstreng.
