peer agreement (net): +1| échevin / échevinat alderman / aldermanship Explanation: Depends a bit on what the context is (historical, or modern) As for 'bourgmestre', 'burgomaster' is the usual word in EN I believe for a BE mayor (cf. NS OED, and R+C); I don't know what translations might be used for it in other senses |
