Greetings!
You may be familiar with this bit of pithy wisdom: “Expect the unexpected.” It would make a good slogan for an insurance company, don't you think? Well, it also characterizes the coming week, which we hope will be full of delightful surprises for you. Here's the first!
- When talking about insurance, to cover (verb) someone means to provide them with insurance protection in case a particular event (for example, an accident or illness) happens.
Insurance coverage (noun) is protection of this kind. - 保険に関して cover という場合、例えば、事故や病気など何かが起こったときに、保険によって保護する、という意味です。
coverage とは、このような保険による保護のことです。
- (car rental agent to customer)
The insurance that comes with the car only covers you for third-party liability, not for personal injury or damage to the vehicle. - I think we need more flood insurance. Our current policy only covers us up to $10,000.
- With this travel insurance, you'll be fully covered for accidents, theft, and other emergencies while you're away.
- (asking about automobile insurance)
Are passengers also covered under this policy? - The movie studio claimed to have bought $1 million worth of insurance coverage for each of the dancer's legs as a publicity stunt.
- My compensation package includes a $55,000 salary, annual bonuses, coverage for health and dental, and a pension plan.
There's no need to worry about a thing. The WordMaster's got you covered!
