      Let \((X,L)\) be a complex abelian variety of dimension \(g\) with a polarization of type \((1, \dots, 1,d)\). For \((X,L)\) generic we prove the following: 1. If \(d \geq g + 2\), then \(\varphi_{| L |} : X \to \mathbb{P}^{d- 1}\) defines a birational morphism onto its image. 2. If \(d>2^ g\), then \(| L |\) is very ample. We show the latter by checking it on a suitable rank-\((g-1)\)- degeneration.
