Globalisation, close economic relations and the vicinity of Germany and Poland, have resulted in the need for translations of economic and legal texts in the Polish-German language pair. The aim of this paper is to present the state of research on translations of Polish codes into German. The first results of a confrontational analysis of the terminology of the Polish Penal Code and its printed German translations, which is the subject of the doctoral dissertation project, will also be presented.

Una certa conoscenza dell'ambito giuridico è generalmente considerato un requisito essenziale per poter tradurre testi giuridici. Il presente articolo mette in discussione questo principio presentando un caso di studio che ha coinvolto studenti iscritti ad un corso di laurea triennale in traduzione. Durante l'anno accademico, i partecipanti hanno ricevuto formazione in linguistica computazionale e nella consultazione di corpora per finalità traduttive. Alla fine dell'a.a., hanno tradotto un testo giuridico di 130 parole senza tuttavia aver ricevuto formazione in ambito legale. Al fine di svolgere le traduzioni assegnate, si sono avvalsi di un corpus offline pre-compilato e di dizionari online bilingue. L'articolo evidenzia come la conoscenza dell'ambito giuridico avrebbe certamente aiutato gli studenti nella scelta dei traducenti e nell'ovviare a traduzioni inesatte. Tuttavia, l'articolo evidenzia come la maggior parte delle imprecisioni commesse riguardano una inefficace consultazione del corpus e dei dizionari. Ad esempio, le espressioni formulaiche e collocazioni presenti nel corpus sono state trascurate. Alla luce dei risultati conseguiti, è possibile supporre che nella pratica e formazione traduttiva una consultazione efficace dei corpora specialistici possa aiutare nel processo traduttivo. Se i testi sono brevi, inoltre, si potrebbe ipotizzare che esperienza nel settore legale non sia strettamente necessaria.

It is generally assumed that a good knowledge of the legal field is a prerequisite to deliver legal translations. This paper will challenge this assumption by presenting a case study with third-year bachelor's students who participated in a translation project. The students, enrolled in a course in translation practice, were trained in corpus consultation at the beginning of the academic year. Nearly at the end, they translated an extract of a supply contract without being trained in the legal field. They consulted a pre-compiled offline corpus and online bilingual dictionaries. The paper findings highlight that knowledge of the legal field would have certainly helped the students make more informed decisions and avoid some mistranslations. However, the major shortcomings were actually due to ineffective corpus or dictionary consultation. In particular, formulaic expressions and collocations were neglected. In light of the paper findings, it can be speculated that in translation training, effective corpus consultation may help users deliver high-quality legal translations. It also seemed that thorough knowledge of the legal field is not a prerequisite, at least as far as short texts are concerned.

W artykule dowiemy się, w jaki sposób BoLC (Bononia Legal Corpus; Rossini Favretti, Tamburini i Martelli 2007) może być pomocnym i korzystnym źródłem w tłumaczeniu prawnym i prawniczym. W tym celu zorganizowano 4-godzinną lekcję próbną z doświadczonymi tłumaczami. Przed warsztatami uczestnicy przetłumaczyli 300-wyrazowy dokument wydany w sprawie cywilnej. Ich tłumaczenia (z języka angielskiego na włoski) zostały poprawione podczas lekcji próbnej, w której uczestnicy nauczyli się konsultować swoje wyniki z BoLC. Korzystali również z dodatkowych zasobów internetowych, takich jak słowniki i/lub blogi eksperckie lub fora. Ustalenia w niniejszym artykule dowodzą, że pomimo pewnych wad, takich jak brak tagowania POS i lematyzacji oraz dość złożona składnia wyszukiwania, BoLC pomaga rozwiać wątpliwości i zapewnić zdumiewające wyniki w pracy przy tłumaczeniu. Jego główna użyteczność polega na możliwości znalezienia wyrażeń konwencjonalnych i użycia kolokacyjnego, co może być dość skomplikowane w dyskursie prawnym.

This paper will explore how consulting the BoLC (Bononia Legal Corpus; Rossini Favretti, Tamburini and Martelli 2007) can be helpful and advantageous when tackling legal translations. To this aim, a 4-hour trial lesson with experienced translators was organized. Before the workshop, the participants translated a 300-word legal document issued within a civil case. Their translations (from English to Italian) were revised during the trial lesson, where the attendants learned how to consult the BoLC. They also used supplementary online resources, such as dictionaries and/or experts' blogs or fora. The paper findings will remark that despite some drawbacks, such as the absence of POS tagging and lemmatization, and a quite complex search syntax, the BoLC helps dispel doubts and deliver outstanding translation work. Its main usefulness lies in the possibility to find formulaic expressions and collocational use, which can be rather intricate in legal discourse.

Język prawny i prawniczy cechuje się dokładnością i żargonowością a jego struktury nie są intuicyjne. Na to nakłada się określony system prawny, który sprawia, że język prawny i prawniczy jest w każdym kraju inny. Tak osoby uczące się drugiego języka (L2) jak i naukowcy mogą uznać język prawny za trudny do zrozumienia, tymczasem tłumacze mogą uważać, że jest on skomplikowany i zawiły, jak i jego przekład. Tymczasem literatura przedmiotu wskazuje, że remedium na te problemy może być sieć użytkowana jako korpus oraz korpusy on-line. Celem niniejszego artykułu jest weryfikacja tego, czy komercyjne przeglądarki internetowe, narzędzia konkordancji, korpusy specjalistyczne on-line mogą być przydatne w rozwiazywaniu problemów wynikających z natury języka prawnego i prawniczego. W szczególności badaniu poddaje się przeszukiwanie zaawansowane w przeglądarce Google i narzędzia konkordancji sieciowej Leeds i specjalistyczne korpusy on-line: COCA. W ten sposób wskazuje się sposób wykorzystania powyższych narzędzi sieciowych oraz ich działanie w sytuacji, gdy wykorzystywane są jednocześnie jako narzędzia do analizy krzyżowej.

Il linguaggio giuridico è caratterizzato da un gergo pedante ed arcaico. Gli studiosi di una lingua straniera, i traduttori ed i professionisti che si approcciano al linguaggio giuridico in lingua straniera, devono tenere presente non solo le peculiarità tecnico-linguistiche, ma anche quelle legate al sistema giuridico di riferimento. Il presente articolo si pone l'obiettivo di mostrare come il Web, considerato come un corpus, può fornire risposte in ambito linguistico e giuridico. In particolare, analizzerà la sintassi di ricerca in Google, il Leeds ed il corpus online COCA. In tal modo si evidenzierà come, usati congiuntamente, questi strumenti possono fornire risposte attendibili in ambito giuridico.

Legal language is hallmarked by a pedantic and user-unfriendly jargon whose constructs are all but intuitive, not to mention the legal system specificity which makes it unique in every country. Second language (L2) learners or scholars, hence, may find it difficult to understand the language of the law; whereas translators may consider legal lexical phrases and patterns rather intricate to deal with. The literature claims that a practical way to deepen language knowledge can be found in the Web considered as corpus and in online corpora. This paper is aimed at exploring whether commercial search engines, Web concordancers and online specialised corpora can tackle the issues revolving around legal language. In particular, it will investigate whether Google advanced search and the Leeds Web concordancer  can be used to meet the requirements of legal language learners, scholars and translators. Furthermore, it will address legal language queries (and results) in an online specialised corpus: the COCA. This paper will provide instances of the soundness of the above-mentioned online resources, especially when used jointly as cross-analysis tools. The shortcomings of one can, in fact, be compensated for by the other(s).
