Law/Patents - Law: Contract(s)
Danish term or phrase: rettighedshaverne
I understand "rettighedshaverne" to be the copyright holders, but is it also correct to refer to them as the "originators?"

copyright holders
Explanation:
The "originator(s)" (same word in Danish and English) is/are, per definition, the first "copyright holder(s)" (="rettighedshaver(e)"" of an intellectual property. If he/she/they sells the intellectual property he/she/they is/are no longer the "copyright holder(s)", but remain(s), per definition, the "originator(s).

Thanks. That is what I thought - two independent meanings, sometimes merging. Thanks for your so clearly stated explanation -especially so early in the morning.

disagree  Sven Petersson: "Copy right" is one word, not two. Source word is plural. "Originator" can be used before the right is traded for the first time. See my answer!
