Hi Hannie,

I'd say that since "scopes" are just views (another way of writing them
in English at least), you could probably handle it however you would
normally in Dutch. By that, I mean if you have another word for views
(like we do with "scopes") then you could probably substitute that in
place (or just use views).

Have a great day:)
Patrick.

P.S. Just my 2 cents worth, from someone who barely speaks English let
alone any other languages. :D
