15 hrs confidence: peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1owners' loans Explanation: בעלים are owners. Shareholders are בעלי מניות. The literal translation of the context example is "to convert all the owners' loans to shares." This does not sound like a shareholder loan but something else, an owner paying off a loan by converting the debt to shares. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day9 hrs (2012-10-15 19:00:08 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- They did not say בעלי מניות or בעלי שליטה. They said בעלים. If they wanted to say something else, they could have. I don't know what other owners there could be. Perhaps it was their job to be more specific when they wrote the Hebrew, but our job is to translate what they wrote, and since I don't know what they really meant and what their setup is, I would stick with "owners." Example sentence(s):
