A MULTISIDED PERSPECTIVE OF LEGAL TRANSLATION
A multisided perspective of legal translation

Summary/Abstract: The paper focuses on the development of legal translation competence, on the conceptualization of legal language and legal translation from a multisided perspective. The pragmatic-functional approach prevails when mapping the theoretical framework to the quality assurance standards imposed by policy makers and by the labour market. Hence, legal translation is multilayered, in compliance with EN 15038, published by the European Committee for Standardization, and with the EMT 2009 guidelines.
