[Mistake in dictionary?]

The dictionary claims:

English: dry-cleaner 
Spanish: tinte 
Norwegian: anstrøk, farge, fargeskjær, fargestoff, snev 

Farge = color, tint etc. Isn't "dry-cleaner" a shop/method for cleaning clothes?
(renseri, tørr-rens)

The word used for drycleaner is tintorero.

Hi.

Yes, you are right.

dry-cleaner (English) = renseri (Norwegian) = tinte, tintorería (Spanish)

This is now corrected in the dictionary.

Thank you

Hi again.

Thank you Arne, you are also right:

tintorero - dry-cleaner - tekstilrenholder

dry-cleaner is used both for the place (also dry-cleaner's) and for the persons
working there.
