Danish term

boes op

Danish to English Bus/Financial Real Estate
I cannot imagine this is anything but an undecipherable (at least to me) typo, but perhaps I'm wrong. In a supplement to a residential lease agreement:

"Depositum kan ikke boes op,"

The comma is in the source and nothing follows this strange construction in this section of the supplement, which deals with deposits and prepaid rent.

Let the deposit go toward the rent after the lease is up.

Depositum har man ikke ret til at ”bo op” efter opsigelsen af lejemålet, da denne skal dække de forpligtelse lejer ...

Danish term (edited): bo(e)s op; opbo

used up by occupation; use up (in lieu of rent)

Another answer based on a past KudoZ question.

The (mis-)spelling of boes would connote a swallowing up of the depost in an insolvency scenario or common Transatlantic 'racket'

BTW, in the UK, we say indecipherable and not undecipherable.
