| Grading comment Nachdem es sich um keinen Versicherungstext handelt, habe ich mich für Christian's Lösung entschieden. Ich habe auf seinen Vorschlag hin etwas im Internet gefunden, was - so denke ich - sehr gut passt: Bemessungsniederschläge der Jährlichkeiten 1 – 30 Jahre
Alans Vorschlag habe ich im letzten Satz verwendet.
Danke Christian, Alan, Daniel und Andrew! 4 KudoZ points were awarded for this answer |
