		Operation Battleaxe began with a frontal attack on the Sollum-Halfaya Pass axis.
		Operation Crusader opened on November 18, with the British XIII Corps advancing on Halfaya Pass and the XXX Corps attempting to sweep around Rommel's southern flank to reach the besieged garrison at Tobruk.
		Operation Crusader resulted in a clear victory for the British, but one they were unable to exploit due to a lack of reinforcements.

		In April 1941, the Axis offensive in Cyrenaica carried them back to Bardia which was again occupied as a strongpoint for their defence of the frontier.
		Neither of the two British offensives of mid-1941 - Operation Brevity (15-27 May) and Operation Battleaxe (15-17 June) - got within striking distance of Bardia, and when Operation Crusader was launched on 18 November, part of the plan was to isolate Bardia and deal with its garrison later.
		It was duly assaulted by the 2nd South African Division between 31 December 1941 and 2 January 1942, and captured with 8,000 prisoners.

		On the British side, Battleaxe was to be a repeat of the Brevity tactics with an increased force level.
		The plan for Operation Brevity was based on a model that would be used time and again, an armored component to defeat the enemy armor, and an infantry component to defeat the frontier strongpoints.
		The operation went much according to plan except that the Germans were able to execute a local counterattack that overran the Headquarters of the Kaffrarian Rifles.

		Operation Brevity was launched on 15 May 1941.
		The operation had gained no territory and the damage inflicted on German tanks and artillery was more than balanced by the loss of British equipment, much of which the Germans were able to recover.
		Operation Brevity was a bitter lesson for the Allies: to deal with an enemy like Rommel, equally skilled in deploying tanks to outgun infantry and artillery to stop tanks, new levels of preparation and planning would be required.

		To summarize, in general it is correct to follow the English literally when the term and its context serve a didactic or illustrative purpose, whereas one could increase speed by using an alternative or a shorter term when the word serves only as a reference.
		On and Off mean, in the most general sense, "operating" and "out of operation." Their brevity and seemingly singular meaning make them ideal for use on keys, buttons, very short text fields, and wherever it is necessary to use the least amount of space possible.
		Perhaps because of the cumbersomeness of this expression—in addition to the usual snobby reasons—journalists prefer the English word.
