it all depends


Explanation:
Jana..you have to provide more context...what is the SUbject Area? This words come in context..what is apparently generic in French is given in a Specific Context and that will change how you translate the word.

Contract for what?? Stocks, bonds? Property? Licensing agreement? See, one could list every kind of contract..

it can even be the Principal..in construction.....

so.....

agree  Gayle Wallimann: Exactly. KudoZ rule 2.3 "provide context." That's the key.

neutral  swisstell: if you had read my input, you would have agreed with me that insufficient context was given instead of being eternally negative about what I say.
23 mins
  -> I do not agree with the translation..sorry...as a generic term...native speaker oblige..that is what I believe...
agree  Kim Metzger: Since the only thing we have to go on is that it's a contract, principal (not just for construction) or client is possible.
