Language pair:	French > English
Subject:	General
Level of diffculty:	Easy / medium
Word or term in question:	deux après que ce DGD soit établi
Context:	LC Champ 31D:2. Etant donné que le délai du contrat est de 18 mois, la LC doit demeurer valide jusqu’au 30.09.2010 au lieu du 30.09.2010. En outre, le paiement final de 10 % relatif à la fourniture sera effectué par LC après l’établissement du DGD, donc la LC doit demeurer valide deux après que ce DGD soit établi, veuillez réviser la date d’échéance en conséquence. There seem to be many mistakes in source. Dates are same, further "deux après que ce DGD soit établi" is creating more confusion.

My comment:

There are indeed several mistakes: in the dates first, it shoud be written "30.09.2012 au lieu de 30.09.2010", then "ans" is omitted after "deux".

How do you know that it's "years"? Is 2 years standard in all "marchés publics"?

In the text they mention a period of eighteen months before the contract expires; so I suppose that, for good measure, they have rounded up to 2 years the validity deadline of the bill of exchange.

Hi Barbara, it could be years, months, weeks, days, who knows. Shalini, you know that it doesn't make sense, no one can answer except whoever wrote this. Ask for a corrected text. And tell us what DGD is, that might help.

You're right, Claude. I guess I threw all caution to the wind after imbibing my evening glass of wine.

LOL. Yes, clearly there's a word missing, which has to relate to the time period in question. I'd definitely point out the ST errors to the client and ask for clarification of anything that's ambiguous or just plain wrong.

Si la signature du décompte général est donnée sans réserve par le titulaire, il devient le décompte général et définitif du marché."
