This is still Belgian law. The word franchise throws me off a little as this contract has nothing to do with franchises whatsoever.

12 mins confidence:   excess
Explanation:
"franchise" is a self insured excess born by the insured

No need to lecture me, I know the difference, but I saw no need to correct the above definition of \"excess\" which, I admit, was written by a non-native speaker.
I am convinced that \"born\" instead of \"borne\" is not uncommon in the States.
\"For example, the past participle form of the verb to bear is borne in British English, whereas in American English the preferred word form is born.\"
http://acl.ldc.upenn.edu/W/W00/W00-1427.pdf (Cognitive and Computing Sciences, University of Sussex)
Google proves clearly that \"fundamental linguistic differences in English\" are unknown to many UK native speakers too. Just a few examples of the many thousands I found:
This suggests that any disproportionate costs born by SMEs will be small www.hse.gov.uk/charging/firstaid/annex-d.htm
Concern about \'negative externalities\' (costs born by others) is another argument for regulation. www.iea.org.uk/record.jsp?type=publication&ID=82
They should also state the costs born by each country helping these war torn countries
www.churchill-society-london.org.uk/winpece.html -
the indirect costs born by rural residents in accessing health facilities. ...www.scotland.gov.uk/cru/kd01/orange/social08.htm
Shall I adopt Jarrys\' tone the next time certain people who are definitely not \"refraining from translating out of their mother tongue\" provide an answer I don\'t like?
