Plus Driver and Minus Driver

There are "plus driver" and "minus driver" as screwdrivers in Japan.

Many Japanese people think that "driver" (screwdriver), "plus driver" and "minus driver" make sense.

However, in order to convey the meaning, first we have to use "screwdriver" instead of "driver."

Also, Japanese people often call "plus driver (screwdriver)" or "minus driver (screwdriver)" depending on the shape of the groove, but they might not make sense.

We have to use "Phillips screwdriver" or "Frearson screwdriver" instead of "plus driver," and have to use "slotted screwdriver" or "flat head screwdriver" instead of "minus driver."

Incidentally, "minus screw" (slotted screw) is often used in places where it is prone to become tainted.
