Norwegian term
erstatte
Non-PRO
Norwegian to English
Tech/Engineering
"XXXXXx gir ingen 100% garanti mot brannulykke. Det erstatter ikke livs og skadeforsikringer"
In this context "Compensation will not be paid for insurance claims against loss of life or property" ?? Right - I want to be sure it isn't intimating that the item cannot replace "loss" in its deeper sense - as opposed to literal compensation!
TIA

I.e.: Don't cancel your other insurance policies just because you sign this one. They do not overlap.

Comment: "Of course Eivind - I knew you'd find a way to put it succinctly. I knew erstatte was "replace" but wasn't sure if there was a double meaning! - by the way King Kahn - not any more!
Cheers

Admittedly, I'm not an expert at legal stuff, but this one looks quite straightforward. The original says: "It does not replace (separate) life and general incurance", i.e. these will have to be issued separatley. I think...
