In addition to Explanation: Hi Richard, This sentence is really not clear. I would say that the proper wording should have been: "Ud over forsikringssummen omfatter forsikringen ..." Then the meaning would clearly be "In addition to". I would still maintain that this is probably the intended meaning but as mentioned, this sentence is not good Danish! I hope this helps :-) Thomas Weber Carlsen -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 20 hrs (2014-02-01 07:46:48 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- On second thought, I believe that the meaning may rather be "included in". Then the English translation would be, "Included in the insurance sum is a machine belonging to Siemens representing a value of DKK 5.000", or similar. Would that make more sense? |

based on Explanation: It means literally "out from" or "based on" The whole sentence should be translated as follows: Based on the the insurance sum, the insurance company would regard a Siemens machine as worth 5,000 crowns. I know this isn't the exact translation but that's what it means. It's similar to the Norwegian Try it with Microsoft Translator. |
