Dutch term

landering

Dutch to English Bus/Financial Marketing / Market Research
Europese uitgever Metro International met 34 gratis edities van Metro, waaronder al in de Amerikaanse steden Philadelphia en Boston, bereidt de landering van de New Yorkse editie op 1 mei aanstaande voor.

there are too many hits to assume it's just a typo for lancering - but I am curious to know whether this is some kind of invented word - country launch ?

thanks

OK - I give in you're right - it's a fata morgana
pity

Yet another typo
Andre de Vries (asker) May 19, 2011:
maybe not er, maybe it isn't
Andre de Vries (asker) May 19, 2011:
see below there is a clear deliberate use of landering in this sentence:

Voor portal zoekmachine website lancering wordt tbv de landering en de doorontwikkelingen erna voor langere periode een ervaren php ontwikkelaar gezocht.

c and d ? I don't think d is such an obvious typo - since it's the row above - but I am prepared to be convinced
Kate Hudson (X) May 19, 2011:
If you actually look at these 400 hits you will find they are generally typos for laundering.. A specific search of only Dutch sites reveals no uses of this word.
Andre de Vries (asker) May 19, 2011:
a lot of Google entries there are more than 400 hits on Google - so it's hard to believe it's simply a typo.

I seriously think this is a typo - given the proximity of c and d on the keyboard. The context also indicates this is correct.
