Am înteles, mulţumesc mult!
eugenman (X) Jul 6, 2006:
It's (a) for sure. One of them must be chosen.
Peter Shortall Jul 6, 2006:
Just curious... can anyone tell me whether it means (a) one of them will *definitely* be chosen, it's just a question of which, or (b) one of them might be chosen, but it's possible neither will be chosen (depending on whether it's necessary to choose)?

disagree scotty2 : In this case, the best translation would have to be, "...on a case-by-case basis..."; or, "...as circumstances warrant..."

am intalnit si aceasta formulare in unele contracte si rapoarte ale unor firme multinationale. Este o alternativa la "as the case may be", in functie de context.

Ce referinte?! Adica sa zic unde am intalnit cuvantul respectiv?

agree Peter Shortall : Dar nu "as the case may be", care ar însemna "one might be chosen" (şi poate niciună nu va fi aleasă) / It means "as may happen/as is possible"

in principle, it leaves room for interpretation depending on circumstance, i.e. "whichever suits best a certain interest at a given time". It's a means of adding flexibility to a formal text, I guess.
