Reference information:
I assume your "P." is confidential, but at least you could tell us what it represents - P wurde umgeschult - what was retrained?
Reference: Context
Reference information:
Context: the parts of a discourse that surround a word or passage and can throw light on its meaning.
"Ample context from the asker is both a valuable tool and a simple courtesy much appreciated by your would-be helpers. What’s more, providing ample context will motivate more translators – especially those with an analytical bent -- to engage themselves in providing answers.
Both to help your helpers invest their time efficiently in your behalf -- as you are requesting -- and to give you the best answers possible, it makes good sense to include adequate context in your queries -- as a minimum:
(1) a definition of the general context (subject matter), plus
(2) ample specific context: the entire source sentence (or more, say the whole paragraph -- excepting of course confidential/proprietary information, which can be disguised or omitted.)
Other useful information may include for instance the target audience/country and the purpose of the translation.
The purpose of this message is not to be critical but to be helpful – not merely in the context of the present question but also of improving the quality of KudoZ questions and answers in general."
All the best, Tom.

| Note to reference poster
Asker: Okay. I'll try to be more specific with my questions. P. is simply the first letter of a surname.
