The ‘get-up' or appearance of services consists, in particular, of the environment in which they are offered and/or the means used in order to provide the services to the relevant consumer. 
Oblik ili izgled usluga sastoji se posebno od okružja u kojemu se nude i/ili sredstava koja se upotrebljavaju za njihovo pružanje relevantnom potrošaču.
Such ‘get-up' is only distinctive where it significantly departs from the norms of the relevant sector. 
Takav je oblik razlikovnog karaktera samo kad znatno odstupa od normi relevantnog sektora.
The salesroom depicted in the application will be perceived as having the merely functional purpose of enabling consumers to purchase conveniently the goods and services offered for inspection and sale. 
Trgovina prikazana u prijavi promatrat će se kao da ima tek funkcionalnu svrhu omogućivanja potrošaču da povoljno kupuje proizvode i usluge koji se nude za pregled i prodaju.
The shape applied for was refused as it was considered that bunny-shaped chocolate with gold wrapping is a common phenomenon on the market corresponding to the industry concerned. 
Prijavljeni je oblik odbijen jer se smatra da je čokolada u obliku zeca u zlatnom omotu uobičajena pojava na tržištu koja odgovara predmetnom sektoru.
An analysis of the individual elements, that is, the shape of a rabbit, the gold foil wrapping and the red ribbon with a bell, were held both individually and cumulatively devoid of distinctive character (paras 44-47). 
Analizom pojedinih elemenata, odnosno oblika zeca, zlatne folije za omatanje i crvene vrpce sa zvonom, zaključeno je da ti elementi pojedinačno i kumulativno nemaju razlikovni karakter (točke 44. - 47.).
The mark, the representation of a twisted wrapper serving as packaging for sweets (and thus not the product itself), was refused registration as it is a ‘normal and traditional shape for a sweet wrapper and … a large number of sweets so wrapped could be found on the market' (para. 56). 
Odbijena je registracija žiga koji prikazuje zakrivljeni omot, a služi kao ambalaža za slatkiše (ali ne i za sam proizvod) jer je to „običan i tradicionalan oblik omota za slatkiše i [...] zato što se na tržištu može naći velik broj slatkiša koji su omotani na taj način” (točka 56.).
The same applies in respect of the colour of the wrapper in question, namely ‘light brown (caramel)'. 
Isto vrijedi i za boju predmetnog omota koja je „svijetlosmeđa (karamel)”.
This colour is not unusual in itself, and neither is it rare to see it used for sweet wrappers (para. 56). 
Ta boja nije sama po sebi neobična, niti je rijetkost vidjeti je na omotima slatkiša (točka 56.).
Therefore, the average consumer will not perceive this packaging in and of itself as an indicator of origin, but merely as a sweet wrapper. 
Prema tome, prosječni potrošač neće percipirati tu ambalažu samu po sebi kao oznaku podrijetla, već samo kao omot za slatkiše.
The refusal of the shape applied for was confirmed by the General Court. 
Opći sud potvrdio je odbijanje prijavljenog oblika.
The elongated neck and the flattened body do not depart from the usual shape of a bottle containing the goods for which protection was sought, namely food products including juices, condiments and dairy products. 
Ispruženi vrat i plosnato tijelo ne odstupaju od uobičajenog oblika boce koja sadržava proizvode za koje se traži zaštita, odnosno prehrambene proizvode, uključujući sokove, začine i mliječne proizvode.
In addition, neither the length of the neck, its diameter nor the proportion between the width and thickness of the bottle is in any way individual (para. 50). 
Osim toga, ni duljina vrata, njezin promjer, ni omjer između širine i debljine boce nisu ni na koji način posebni (točka 50.).
Furthermore, even if the ridges around the sides of the bottle could be considered distinctive, these alone are insufficient to affect the overall impression given by the shape applied for to such an extent that it departs significantly from the norm or customs of the sector (para. 53). 
Osim toga, čak i ako se rubove na stranama boce može smatrati razlikovnima, oni sami nisu dovoljni da na ukupni dojam prijavljenog oblika utječu u tolikoj mjeri da on značajno odstupa od norme ili praksi sektora (točka 53.).
It is a well-known fact that bottles usually contain lines and creases on them. 
Poznata je činjenica da boce po sebi obično imaju crte i nabore.
The relief at the top is not sufficiently striking but will be perceived as a mere decorative element. 
Reljef na vrhu nije dovoljno upečatljiv pa će se smatrati tek ukrasnim elementom.
As a whole, the combination of the elements is not sufficiently distinctive. 
Kombinacija elemenata u cjelini nema dovoljan razlikovni karakter.
The average consumer of the goods in Class 32 would not consider the shape as an indicator of origin of goods in Class 32. 19

The Board of Appeal annulled the decision refusing the registration of the shape mark for chewing gums and other confectionery. 
Žalbeno vijeće poništilo je odluku kojom se odbija registracija žiga koji čini oblik za žvakaće gume i druge slastice.
The Board of Appeal considered that the shape is not common in the market sector in question. 
Žalbeno je vijeće smatralo da taj oblik nije uobičajen u predmetnom tržišnom sektoru.
In this case, the General Court upheld an objection under Article 7(1)(b) EUTMR. 
Opći je sud u ovom slučaju prihvatio prigovor na temelju članka 7. stavka 1. točke (b) Uredbe o žigu EU-a.
The mark description specified that ‘The mark consists of the position of the circular and rectangular fields on a watch face'. 
U opisu žiga stoji da se „žig sastoji od položaja kružnih i pravokutnih polja na licu sata”.
The Court considered that the mark was not independent or distinguishable from the form or design of the product itself and that the positioned elements were not substantially different from other designs on the market. 
Sud smatra da žig nije neovisan ni razlikovan od oblika ili dizajna samog proizvoda i da smješteni elementi nisu bitno drugačiji od drugih dizajna na tržištu.
In this case involving hosiery consisting of an orange strip covering the toe area, the General Court considered that there was no evidence to suggest that the colouring of this part of the product would normally be perceived as having trade mark character. 
Opći sud, u slučaju čarapa s narančastom trakom koja pokriva područje prstiju, smatra da nema dokaza koji bi upućivali na to da bi se bojanje tog dijela proizvoda obično shvatilo kao nešto što ima karakter žiga.
On the contrary, it was considered that this feature would be likely to be perceived as a decorative feature falling within the norms and customs of the market sector. 
Naprotiv, smatrano je da bi se to obilježje vjerojatno shvatilo kao ukrasno obilježje koje spada u trgovačke norme i praksu sektora.
The Article 7(1)(b) EUTMR objection was therefore maintained. 
Stoga je potvrđen prigovor iz članka 7. stavka 1. točke (b) Uredbe o žigu EU-a.
Buttons are common decorative elements of soft toys. 
Gumbi su uobičajen ukrasni element plišanih igračaka.
A button is a simple geometrical form that does not depart from the norm or customs of the sector. 
Gumb je jednostavan geometrijski oblik koji ne odstupa od norme ili praksi sektora.
It is not uncommon to attach badges, rings, ribbons, loops and embroidery to the ears of a soft toy. 
Nije neuobičajeno dodati značke, prstenje, karike i vezene ukrase na uši plišane igračke.
The relevant public will therefore perceive the two signs applied for as ornamental elements but not as an indication of commercial origin. 
Relevantna će javnost stoga smatrati da su ta dva prijavljena znaka ukrasni elementi, a ne oznaka komercijalnog podrijetla.

Sastoji se od figurativnog elementa smještenog na vanjsku površinu gornjeg dijela cipele koji se proteže uzduž cipele od vrha gornjišta do đona.
In general, a mark consisting of a decorative pattern that is simple and commonplace is considered devoid of any element that could attract the consumers' attention, and insufficient to indicate the source or origin of goods or services. 
Općenito se smatra da žig, koji se sastoji od ukrasnog, ali jednostavnog i uobičajenog uzorka, nema niti jedan element koji bi mogao privući pozornost potrošača te da nedostatno ukazuje na izvor ili podrijetlo proizvoda ili usluga.
The above pattern mark was a textile pattern and therefore considered to comprise the appearance of the goods itself, as the mark was applied for in Classes 18, 24 and 25. 19 
Prethodno navedeni žig uzorka uzorak je tekstila pa se stoga smatra da obuhvaća izgled samog proizvoda jer je žig prijavljen za proizvode u razredima 18., 24. i 25. 19
In this case of an application for tyres, the relevant consumer would perceive the mark as merely a representation of the grooves of a tyre, and not an indication of source of origin. 
U ovom slučaju prijave za gume, relevantni bi potrošač žig protumačio samo kao prikaz brazdi na gumi, a ne kao oznaku izvornosti ili podrijetla.
The pattern is banal and the mark cannot fulfil its function as an indicator of origin. 
Uzorak je običan i žig ne može ispuniti svoju funkciju oznake podrijetla.

The sign is merely a repetition of identical squares that does not display any element or noticeable variation, in particular in terms of fancifulness or as regards the way in which its components are combined, that would distinguish it from the usual representation of another regular pattern consisting of a different number of squares.

This necessarily implies that it is a non-distinctive sign as it will not be perceived as an indicator of commercial origin. 
Tim se nužno podrazumijeva da je riječ o nerazlikovnom znaku jer se on neće smatrati pokazateljem komercijalnog podrijetla.

1.1 The notion of descriptiveness 
Pojam opisnosti
A sign must be refused as descriptive if it has a meaning that is immediately perceived by the relevant public as providing information about the goods and services applied for. 
Znak treba odbiti kao opisan ako njegovo značenje relevantna javnost odmah doživljava kao pružanje informacija o proizvodima i uslugama za koje se prijavljuje.
This is the case where the sign provides information about, inter alia, the quantity, quality, characteristics, purpose, kind and/or size of the goods or services. 
To je slučaj kada znak, među ostalim, pruža informacije o količini, kakvoći, obilježjima, namjeni, vrsti i/ili veličini proizvoda ili usluga.
The relationship between the term and the goods and services must be sufficiently direct and specific (20/07/2004, T311/02, Limo, EU:T:2004:245, § 30; 30/11/2004, T173/03, Nurseryroom, EU:T:2004:347, § 20), as well as concrete, direct and understood without further reflection (26/10/2000, T345/99, Trustedlink, EU:T:2000:246, § 35). 
Odnos između izraza i proizvoda i usluga mora biti dovoljno izravan i specifičan (20/07/2004, T311/02, Limo, EU:T:2004:245, § 30; 30/11/2004, T173/03, Nurseryroom, EU:T:2004:347, § 20) te konkretan, direktan i razumljiv bez potrebe za dodatnim promišljanjem (26/10/2000, T345/99, Trustedlink, EU:T:2000:246, § 35).
If a mark is descriptive, it is also non-distinctive. 
Ako je žig opisan, on je istodobno i nerazlikovan.
Article 7(1)(c) EUTMR does not apply to those terms that are only suggestive or allusive as regards certain characteristics of the goods and/or services. 
Članak 7. stavak 1. točka (c) Uredbe o žigu Europske unije ne primjenjuje se na izraze koji su samo sugestivni ili aludiraju na određena obilježja proizvoda i/ili usluga.
Sometimes this is also referred to as vague or indirect references to the goods and/or services (31/01/2001, T135/99, Cine Action, EU:T:2001:30, § 29). 
Katkad se to odnosi na nejasna ili neizravna upućivanja na proizvode i/ili usluge (31/01/2001, T135/99, Cine Action, EU:T:2001:30, § 29).
The public interest underlying Article 7(1)(c) EUTMR is that exclusive rights should not exist for purely descriptive terms that other traders might wish to use as well. 
Javni interes na kojem se temelji članak 7. stavak 1. točka (c) Uredbe o žigu EU-a podrazumijeva da isključiva prava ne bi trebala postojati za izraze koji su isključivo opisni, a koje bi mogli poželjeti upotrebljavati i drugi trgovci.
However, it is not necessary for the Office to show that there is already a descriptive use by the applicant or its competitors. 
Ipak, Ured ne mora dokazati da kod podnositelja prijave ili njegovih konkurenata već postoji opisna uporaba.
Consequently, the number of competitors that could be affected is totally irrelevant. 
Stoga je posve nevažno na koliki bi se broj konkurenata utjecalo.
Therefore, if a word is descriptive in its ordinary and plain meaning, this ground for refusal cannot be overcome by showing that the applicant is the only person who produces, or is capable of producing, the goods in question. 
Zbog tog razloga, ako je značenje riječi u njezinu svakodnevnom i osnovnom obliku opisno, taj razlog za odbijanje ne može se poništiti dokazivanjem da je podnositelj prijave jedina osoba koja proizvodi ili je u stanju proizvoditi predmetne proizvode.
1.2 The reference base 
Referentna osnova
The reference base is the ordinary understanding of the relevant public of the word in question. 
Referentna osnova jest uobičajeno razumijevanje predmetne riječi na način na koji je razumije relevantna javnost.
That can be corroborated by dictionary entries, examples of the use of the term in a descriptive manner found on internet websites, or it may clearly follow from the ordinary understanding of the term. 
Osnovu se može potkrijepiti unosima iz rječnika, primjerima uporabe izraza na opisni način preuzetima s mrežnih mjesta, ili ona može jasno proizlaziti iz uobičajenog razumijevanja izraza.
It is not necessary for the Office to prove that the word is the subject of a dictionary entry in order to refuse a sign. 
Ured ne mora dokazati da je riječ unesena u neki rječnik kako bi se znak odbio.
In particular for composite terms, dictionaries do not mention all possible combinations. 
U rječnicima se ne navode sve moguće kombinacije za određenu riječ, posebno kad je riječ o složenicama.
What matters is the ordinary and plain meaning. 
Važno je uobičajeno i osnovno značenje.
In addition, terms used as specialised terminology to designate the respective relevant characteristics of the goods and services are to be considered descriptive. 
Osim toga, opisnima se trebaju smatrati izrazi koji se upotrebljavaju kao stručna terminologija u svrhu označivanja odgovarajućih relevantnih svojstava proizvoda i usluga.
In these cases it is not required to demonstrate that the meaning of the term is immediately apparent to the relevant consumers to which the goods and services are addressed. 
U tim slučajevima ne mora se dokazati da je značenje izraza odmah jasno relevantnim potrošačima kojima su namijenjeni proizvodi i usluge.
It suffices that the term is meant to be used, or could be understood by part of the relevant public, as a description of the goods or services for which protection is sought, or a characteristic of the goods and services (17/09/2008, T226/07, Pranahaus, EU:T:2008:381, § 36; 18/11/2015, T558/14, TRILOBULAR, EU:T:2015:858, § 50). 
Dovoljno je da se izrazom želi opisati proizvod ili usluga čija se zaštita traži, ili neko svojstvo tog proizvoda ili usluge, ili da dio relevantne javnosti može na taj način razumjeti taj izraz (17/09/2008, T226/07, Pranahaus, EU:T:2008:381, § 36;18/11/2015, T558/14, TRILOBULAR, EU:T:2015:858, § 50).
Article 7(1)(c) EUTMR also applies to transliterations. 
Članak 7. stavak 1. točka (c) Uredbe o žigu EU-a primjenjuje se i na transliteraciju.
In particular, transliterations of Greek words into Latin characters must be treated in the same way for the purpose of examining absolute grounds for refusal as words written in Greek characters and vice versa (16/12/2010, T281/09, Chroma, EU:T:2010:537, § 34). 
Konkretno, za potrebe ispitivanja apsolutnih razloga za odbijanje, s transliteracijama grčkih riječi u latinsko pismo mora se postupati na isti način kao i s riječima pisanima grčkim pismom i obrnuto (16/12/2010, T281/09, Chroma, EU:T:2010:537, § 34).
This is because the Latin alphabet is known to Greek-speaking consumers. 
Razlog za to je činjenica da je latinica poznata potrošačima s grčkog govornog područja.
The same applies to the Cyrillic alphabet, which is used in the EU by Bulgarians, who are also familiar with Latin characters. 
Isto vrijedi i za ćirilicu, kojom se u EU-u služe stanovnici Bugarske, koji također poznaju latinične znakove.
The following principles in respect of both language and dictionary use apply, with regard to the reference base: 
Sljedeća načela primjenjuju se u odnosu na uporabu u jeziku i rječniku, s obzirom na referentnu osnovu:
Languages 
Jezici
The sign must be refused if it is descriptive in any of the official languages of the European Union, regardless of the size or population of the respective country. 
Znak treba odbiti ako ga se smatra opisnim na bilo kojem od službenih jezika Europske unije, bez obzira na površinu pojedine zemlje ili njezin broj stanovnika.
Systematic language checks are only performed in the official languages of the European Union. 
Sustavne provjere jezika provode se isključivo na službenim jezicima Europske unije.
For example, the term ‘Hellim' is the Turkish translation of the word ‘Halloumi', a type of cheese. 
Na primjer, izraz „Hellim” prijevod je na turski jezik riječi „Halloumi” koja označava vrstu sira.
Since Turkish is an official language in Cyprus, it is a language that is understood and spoken by part of the population of Cyprus, and therefore the average consumer in Cyprus may understand that ‘Hellim' is a descriptive term for cheese (13/06/2012, T534/10, Hellim, EU:T:2012:292). 
S obzirom na to da je turski jezik jedan od službenih jezika na Cipru, riječ je o jeziku koji razumije i govori dio stanovništva Cipra te stoga prosječni potrošač na Cipru može shvatiti da je „Hellim” opisni izraz za sir (13/06/2012, T534/10, Hellim, EU:T:2012:292).
Under point 1 above, consideration must, under certain circumstances, be given to the understanding by the relevant public of foreign terms in the sense that they originate from another EU language. 
U okviru prethodne točke 1. u određenim je okolnostima potrebno uzeti u obzir razinu razumijevanja koju relevantna javnost ima u pogledu stranih izraza koji potječu iz nekog drugog jezika EU-a.
This may be because, depending on the goods and services claimed in the EUTM application, the relevant public: 
Razlog tome mogao bi biti taj da, ovisno o proizvodima i uslugama čija se zaštita traži u prijavi žiga EU-a, relevantna javnost:
has an elementary understanding of the language in question and the sign consists of an elementary word of that language. 
ima osnovno poznavanje predmetnog jezika, a znak sadržava neku osnovnu riječ iz tog jezika.
This is supported by the fact that the GC has held that a very large proportion of European consumers and professionals have an elementary knowledge of English (26/09/2012, T301/09, Citigate, EU:T:2012:473, § 41); 
To dokazuje činjenica da je Opći sud odlučio da vrlo velik udio europskih potrošača i stručnjaka ima osnovno poznavanje engleskog jezika (26/09/2012, T301/09, Citigate, EU:T:2012:473, § 41);
consists of specialists for whom certain technical terms in another EU Member State's official language are understood:
