GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

Dutch translation:onder ogen zien, realiseren, zich rekenschap geven van, zich bewust zijn van, beschouwen

English term or phrase: recognise (hier)
Context: "To accommodate the opening up of the natural gas market to competition, the XXX Group has recognised its distribution business and its relationship with the various key actors in the market.(end customers, suppliers, transporters, local authorities and the regulatory bodies, which judge and endorse the distributors proposals in terms of pricing)."

Vind "herkennen" of "erkennen" nogal raar klinken in deze context. Had eerder gedacht aan "openbaar maken" of "kenbaar maken".

Alle suggesties zijn welkom

Dank bij voorbaat

Bedankt Henk!

agree  avantix: zich bewust zijn van - en dan zou ik *to accommodate* vertalen als *met het oog op*. A propos Henk< hoe komt het dat jij zo vertrouwd bent met prison guards? En dan ook nog in het donker... Was jij een van die fleeing convicts?
