More often they adopt the gender of a similar sounding word. That’s probably also here the case, "Trademark" ↔︎ "die Marke", but that’s just my guess. | |

| Aug 13, 2016 at 10:45 | comment | added | idmean | @Beta Apart from that this wouldn't make much sense, that’s grammatically impossible as "Trademark" is feminin in German but "konkreten" is declined for a masculine word. | |

| Aug 13, 2016 at 8:29 | comment | added | tofro | Agree with the interpretation (and thus, the answer), tend to disagree with the original usage - I don't see Termin abbreviated with "Tm" commonly (or rather: ever). | |
