法律英语翻译技巧（二）法学语言与法学语言翻译例1：The law holds that the individual is responsible for his acts. The law also indicates what is good and right, and what may and should be done. It also indicates what is evil and wrong, and should not and may not be done. The law further holds that what is evil and wrong is a crime and may not be done, and if done, renders the doer liable to punishment. The law also recognizes the principle that man has free will and that, with certain exceptions, he exercises free will in commission of any crime that he may commit.译文1：法律认为公民应对自己的行为负责。
法律还规定什么是美好的和正确的，规范了哪些事是允许做或应该做的。
同样，法律规范了什么是邪恶的和错误的。
法律还进一步明确规定哪些邪恶的错误的事是不能做的犯罪行为看，如果某人做了这样的事，那么该行为就要受到惩罚。
同样，法律还承认这样一个原则，每个公民除犯罪自由外都具有自由意志，如果某人在各种违法活动中实施其自由意志，那么他就可能触犯法律。
译文2：法律规定人人应对自己的行为承担责任，分清善良和正义，规范了人们的行为准则；法律还认为，作孽枉法即是犯罪，法不可恕，谁要以身试法，必将受到严惩。
法律所主张的原则是：人人享有自由意志的权利；同时也认为，除特殊情况外，人们的自由往往表现在因泛滥自由意志而受到惩罚的行为上。

Legal English (revised version for the students)Ch.1 The Main Features of Legal English一、法律英语的英译：David Mellinkoff（加州大学洛杉矶分校法学院教授）：《The Language of the Law》19631.legal English---Lawful EnglishLegal parlance（说法、用语）/legal lingo（行话、隐语）/legal jargon（行话、黑话）/legalese( 法律八股文)/language of jurisprudence(法理语言)2. the English Language of the Law or shortened as “the language of the law”3. 法律英语与法学英语二、法律英语的范围：是否凡是涉及法律的英语（词汇、表达方法、句子结构……）都是法律英语？英美法学界所公认的法律英语主要是指普通法国家（common-law countries）的法律人所用的习惯语言（customary language），包括某些词汇、短语，或具有特色的一些表达方法(mode of expressions)。
三、法律英语的主要特点：I. precise or exact (准确)正常情况下，起草法律文件时，用词造句务必十分精准（with great exactness），因为一旦笔者的思想、观点、企图落实成文字，即成为法庭判断是非的重要依据，因为按严格解释原则(principle of strict construction)或唯名论原则(principle of nominalism)，尽管实践中还存在推测意图原则(principle of presumed intent)，但其不占主导地位，书面文字仍然是法官解释法律文件的唯一依据。

Lesson One: Legal System 法律制度英属殖民地时期(the Period of the English Colonies)和美利坚合众国时期(the Period of the United States)。
公诉制度(public prosecution) 美国属于普通法系(Common Law Legal System)分散制(decentralization)为原则；以判例法(case law)为主体。
"零散的无系统"(fragmental no system)。
成文法(written law)或制定法(statutory law)，遵从前例"(stare decisisPart OneThe United States is at once a very new nation and a very old nation. It is a new nation compared with many other countries, and it is new, too, in the sense that it is constantly being renewed by the addition of new elements of population and of new States. But in other senses it is old. It is the oldest of the "new" nations--the first one to be made out of an Old World colony. It has the oldest written constitution, the oldest continuous federal system, and the oldest practice of self government of any nation.美国既是一个非常新的国家也是一个非常老的国家。

市民法是世界盛行的法律体系，它源于罗马法，没有详尽的规则系统，通常 是法典式的，它被法官应用和解释。然而，现代法律系统是 19 世界法典编纂运 动的派生物，在那期间大多数重要法定（尤其是拿破仑法典和德国民法典）诞生 了。
市民法以罗马法为基础，尤其是《查士丁尼民法大全》，后来在中世纪由中 世纪的法官发展。对罗马法的吸收接纳，不同国家有不同的特点。在一些国家， 它的影响来自于立法机关的法令，亦即罗马法成为有建设性的法律。而在另一些 国家，罗马法则在法律理论家主张的审核程式上被接受。

普通法和制定法存在于美国法律制度中。在历史发展进程中，法律的某些部 门几乎不由制定法所控制，而是由司法判决所控制。例如，合同法大部分内容就 是在英国法律制度的演进中由普通法的法官发展出来的。当然，这并不意味着这 一法律部门就不存在立法。立法机关实际上也制定涵盖合同内容的法律，立法广
