"read rights"
0 Hi 02 br
02 br
00 Here is my question: I'm translating an IT-related documents (from French to English). 02 br
02 br
00 At some point, I have a list of problems and their solutions. 02 br
00 One problem occurs when a given file cannot be read and the related solution is 02 br
02 br
00 "Check the read rights of the file named <...>" 02 br
02 br
00 Now, I'm wondering if this is correctly worded. "Read rights" here means permission to read; could it be interpreted as "the read rights belonging to the file named <...>" 02 br
02 br
00 Does this say what I'm trying to express or should I word it differently (if so, how?) 02 br
02 br
00 Thanks for any help 05 0 010id 1

00 The expression "read rights" usually refers to permission that is given read a file but nothing else. In other words, the file may be read but not be copied or altered by the reader. 02 br

00 I would interpret 01 i 00 Check the read rights of the file named <...> 02 i 00 to mean something like 01 i 00 Loo

00 I think that in my context, it's more "permission". Indeed, you must check whether you are allowed to read the file; not see if it's read-only. 02 br
