disagree Cilian O'Tuama : Lebensjahr entwickelte sich zunehmend eine Kielbrust?// As it stands, it would make no sense, despite all the agrees below. But admittedly, Asker might have omitted crucial preceding text, for whatever reason.

agree Anne Schulz : @Cilian: Warum nicht – wenn z.B. davor steht "Ab etwa dem 15."? Der Kontext ist ja mehr als rudimentär, und wenn als Term "LJ Kilebrust" angegeben ist, weiß Anabella vielleicht selbst nicht, wie der Satz sinnvoll zu gliedern und zu präsentieren ist.

Danke sehr, auch für den Kommentar.
agree Susanne Schiewe : Ja, "Lebensjahr" ist sehr gut möglich.

Danke sehr, auch für den Kommentar.
agree Marga Shaw : Ich glaube auch, dass mit 'LJ' Lebensjahr gemeint ist. Vielleicht hat Anabella nicht den vollständigen Satz angegeben.

agree Dr. Christopher Kronen : Lebensjahr (LJ) is also possible. There is not enough context provided to know whether these are someone's initials, etc.
