If you want to use a nanny but don’t think you can afford the expense, consider sharing a nanny, an increasingly popular childcare solution for many... families. It enables two families to use one nanny and share the costs of employing the nanny between them. … If you want or need a more flexible arrangement than day care can offer, sharing a nanny may work well for you. With a day care or babysitter, you must drop your child off and pick [her/him] up by a certain time... and you can’t leave [her/him] if [she/he] is sick. Using a shared nanny means you can build in flexibility from the beginning. You may have an easier time arranging pickups and drop-off, or at least changing your schedule if you need to... 2, record 1, English, - shared%20nanny

Lighterage clause. It is essential to insert the so-called "lighterage clause" in charter-parties which show as port of discharge : any safe port in a certain range, e. g. Havre-Hamburg range. Such a clause may read as follows :"Should steamer be ordered to discharge at a place where there is not sufficient water to enter the first tide after arrival, without lightening, and be always afloat, laydays to count from twenty-four hours after arrival at a safe anchorage for similar vessels bound for such place, and any lighterage incurred to enable her to reach the place of discharge is to be at the expense and risk of the receivers of cargo... 1, record 2, English, - lighterage%20clause

In this clause, "lighterage" is given the restrictive meaning of "lightening" (to put cargo in lighters in order to lighten the ship, to reduce its draft), instead of its original meaning (loading and/or unloading of cargo by means of lighters but for shipping purposes). Although to change thus the original meaning of lighterage is, strictly speaking, a misuse, the wording of the clause thus called sufficiently specifies its meaning to avoid any misunderstanding. Writers of charter parties and transport documents have universally adopted "lighterage" as a synonym of "lightening" for the corresponding clauses: consequently, in the particular context of clauses incorporated to the above mentioned documents, its usage is to be considered correct. 2, record 2, English, - lighterage%20clause
