What is a &quot;representation of a registered trade mark[,] together with the registered particulars of that trade mark&quot;?
<p>What exactly does the embolded phrase below mean??? Are there examples of such representations?</p>
<p>Please demystify  it in simple English. Pretend I am an average naive 17 y.o. who does not know the law.</p>
<p>I am not a linguist, but I added a comma to separate that adverbial(?)  subordinate clause (starting with &quot;<strong>together with</strong>&quot;), because sentence 46(2) is too long!</p>

<p>A representation of a trademark is a term that generalizes a picture of it, to include trademarks that have some different medium such as 3D, color, smell, sound, etc.</p>
<p>The registered particulars of the mark would be a description in words setting forth what is and is not claimed within a mark. For example, often a mark will claim words as they appear in a stylized fashion but not the individual words themselves without the stylized script.</p>
<p>From the comments, Australia <a href="https://manuals.ipaustralia.gov.au/trademark/3.-representation-of-the-trade-mark---general" rel="nofollow noreferrer">gives the simple example of</a>:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>The representation of the trade mark may consist of a written
description of sounds if the sign is not a musical-type sound. For
example the graphical representation of the trade mark might be the
words “CLIP, CLOP, MOO” and a concise and accurate description of the
trade mark might be along the lines “The trade mark consists of the
sound of a cow taking two steps on pavement, followed by the sound of
a cow mooing as recorded on the compact disc accompanying the
application form”.</p>
