Abstract
Case comment on C-108/05 Bovemij [2006] ECR I-7605. A trade mark which is not inherently distinctive must acquire distinctive character throughout a member state to be registered; where a member state (or the Benelux) is divided linguistically and a mark lacks distinctiveness in one language, but not another, it is only necessary to show sufficient distinctiveness in the linguistic area where it is not distinctive.
