dash Explanation: Here is the explanation of the term I found out: Buchhalternase Buchhalterknie, Vakatstrich; die Sperrlinie zur Unbrauchbarmachung von leeren Zwischenräumen in den der Buchführung dienenden Büchern und Kontoblättern gemäß § 239 III HGB. zurück (aus: "Gabler Wirtschafts-Lexikon,15.Auflage 2000") So it is really more than just a "dash", but I think in English you don't have any legal description of how to use a "dash". Gabler Wirtschafts-Lexikon,15.Auflage 2000 |
