This long needed reference on the innumerable and increasing ways that the law intersects with translation and interpreting features essays by scholars and professions from the United States, Australia, Hong Kong, Iceland, Israel, Japan, and Sweden. The essays range from sophisticated treatments of historical and hence philosophical variations in concept and practice to detailed practical advice on self-education. Essays show a particular concern for the challenges of courtroom discourse when the parties not only use different languages but operate from different cultural and legal traditions.

Desde siempre en nuestro país, la traducción de las diversas instancias del procedimiento parlamentario ha causado dificultades que, en ocasiones, han llevado a graves errores de interpretación que ni el paso del tiempo ha logrado subsanar. Como sucede con la jerga de toda especialidad, el vocabulario utilizado en el Congreso y en las legislaturas provinciales y municipales para el tratamiento de sus iniciativas legislativas es específico, y todo intento de alejarse de él puede llevar a desinteligencias y situaciones engorrosas. Mucho antes de la creación del Congreso argentino, nuestras Cámaras legislativas intentaron reproducir —a través de la traducción— terminología y procedimientos para poder celebrar sus sesiones. Para ello, se recurrió a los cuerpos legislativos de larga data, como el Parlamento de Gran Bretaña, el Congreso de los Estados Unidos y la Asamblea Legislativa de Francia. Entre los muchos diccionarios de especialidades, es difícil encontrar en estas latitudes uno sobre procedimiento parlamentario; y hasta el momento, no hay ninguno bilingüe que abarque la cantidad de términos específicos que contiene este diccionario. Consciente de esta carencia, me he atrevido a elaborar, palabra por palabra, esta obra de características desconocidas en el país, tomando para ello la jerga propia de nuestro Congreso Nacional y la del Congreso de los Estados Unidos. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The translation of the different steps of the parliamentary procedure in our country has always raised difficulties, which at times, have led to serious misinterpretations, not always solved even by the passing of time. As it happens with the jargon of any specialty, the vocabulary used in Congress and provincial and local legislatures in the consideration of their legislative initiatives is specific, and all attempts to move away from it may lead to misunderstandings and awkward situations. Long before the creation of the Argentine Congress, our legislative houses attempted to reproduce—through translation—terminology and procedures to be able to successfully hold their meetings. To that end, it was found appropriate to resort to the old legislative bodies, such as the British Parliament, the Congress of the United States of America and the Legislative Assembly of France. Among the many specialty dictionaries in these latitudes, it is difficult to find one on parliamentary procedure; and up to the present, there is no other bilingual dictionary containing the number of specific terms that this dictionary contains. Being aware of this deficit, I have dared to build up, word by word, this work of unknown characteristics in the country, employing, to that end, the jargon of our National Congress and that of the Congress of the United States.

ISBN:

This edition of the World Bank has been revised and expanded by the Terminology Unit in the Languages Services Division of the World Bank in collaboration with the English, Spanish, and French Translation Sections. The Glossary is intended to assist the Bank's translators and interpreters, other Bank staff using French and Spanish in their work, and free-lance translator's and interpreters employed by the Bank. For this reason, the Glossary contains not only financial and economic terminology and terms relating to the Bank's procedures and practices, but also terms that frequently occur in Bank documents, and others for which the Bank has a preferred equivalent. Although many of these terms, relating to such fields as agriculture, education, energy, housing, law, technology, and transportation, could be found in other sources, they have been assembled here for ease of reference. A list of acronyms occurring frequently in Bank texts (the terms to which they refer being found in the Glossary) and a list of international, regional, and national organizations will be found at the end of the Glossary.
