English term or phrase: 2wks

Sterbeurkunde aus Neuseeland:

Todesursache(n) Cerebrovascular accident *2Wks*

also: Schlaganfall,was aber bedeutet 2Wks (könnte eine Abkürzung für 2 weeks sein, also, dass die Dame 2 Wochen nach dem Schlaganfall an den Folgen gestorben ist). Damit kenne ich mich aber zu wenig aus und möchte nicht spekulieren.

2 W

Explanation:
Mit "2wks" sind in Neuseeland eindeutig 2 Wochen gemeint, wie entsprechende Recherchen im Internet ergeben haben, und die entsprechende Ankürzung in deutscher Sprache ist 2 W. Was damit tatsächlich gemeint ist, bleibt schleierhaft.

Notes to answerer

Asker: Danke Rolf. Na ja, da die Dame wohl nicht 2 W lang einen Schlaganfall hatte liegt es nahe, dass es so ist wie oben gemutmaßt. Jedenfalls danke für die Bestätigung und die Recherche.

Asker: Danke Rolf.
