Intled.

Non-PRO English Law/Patents Certificates, Diplomas, Licenses, CVs Birth certificate
I have to translate n a birth certificate from Sri Lanka from English into french - and that actually already was translated from Tamil to English, but we do not have the Tamil version.

There is one abbreviation that I cannot find out what it mean: intled.

"Name: Intled. XXX YYY"
The XXX is a name, but it is crossed out, and YYY is the name of the person.

Puting some other names it would look like that:
"Name: Intled. Mary [crossed out] Caroline"

I have a second birth certificate there is no mention of it. But there is also nothing that is crossed out.

What does Intled. mean?

Thank you in advance for your help!

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

initialled

it means that someone has indicated the crossing out was done by them (deliberately)

agree Charles Davis : Probably. Nothing else occurs to me.

Thanks:-)
agree Sheila Wilson : So, the registrar made a mistake on the original certificate, crossed it out, and signed next to it (but with initials only) to document the error correctly

Thanks! Yes, here it would be the registrar doing the initialling but on other document it could be anyone making the correction
