Question

What is the translation of "Comment s'appelle ce terrain de camping"? I know that the literal translation is, "How do you call camping"? but that makes no sense to me.

<i>camping</i> is an English word borrowed by the French language which means
1. the activity of camping
2. camp-ground.

"Comment s'appelle" is an expression which translates to "what do you call ...."

"ce" => this
"terrain de camping" => camp-ground

So the sentence translates to:
What is the name of this camp-ground?

Oh, I translated wrong, my apologies. So then, how would I answer this? I'm unsure of what it is asking.
MathMate
Give it a try! You must know the name.
Erika
Oh, it makes sense now! Thank you very much!
MathMate
Je vous en prie!
