In insurance parlance, the word \"<b>particular</b>\" means partial, and the word \"<b>average</b>\" means loss.

document.writeln("<p id=inde>The <b>With Average</b> \(<b>W.A.</b>\) is a less inclusive form of coverage than the <b>All Risks</b>. <font color=red>It covers against total loss and partial loss caused by the <b>perils of the sea</b></font> \(i.e., the vessel has been stranded, sunk, burnt or been in a collision with other vessels or external substances other than water, such as ice\)<font color=red>, <b>jettison of cargo</b>, <b>barratry</b></font> \(i.e., negligence, fraud or wrongful acts of the ship's master and/or crew resulting in injury or loss to the ship's owner\)<font color=red>, and other like perils.</font></p>")

However, if the loss is more than the indicated excess, the assured can claim the loss minus the deduction of the percentage of excess specified.
