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。

法律英语基本句型法律英语（包括合同与法律条文）的翻译其实并不难，有一些常用句型，这些句型有固定的结构，也有固定的翻译方式。
本文将对这些基本句型分别予以介绍和说明。
句型一：OTHERWISE句型（一）otherwise句型通常用来表述以下几种意思：1、除……外；2、其他……otherwise在表示“除外”含义时，常与unless共同使用，即otherwise通常出现在unless引导的状语从句中，例如下面这句：In this contract, unless the context otherwise requires, "goods" means……在本协议所称“货物”，除条款另有规定外，是指……再看一个例子：Unless in any enactment it is otherwise provided……除成文法另有规定外……由此可见，在otherwise和unless搭配使用时，unless放在从句句首，而otherwise放在主语和谓语之间，即：unless+主语+otherwise+谓语如果使用被动语态，则otherwise放在主语和be动词后面，谓语的过去分词前面，即：unless+主语+be动词+otherwise+谓语的过去分词OTHERWISE句型（二）otherwise除了可以和unless连用作“除……另……外”的意思，在法律文本里，还常常和or连用，表示“及其他”的意思。
下面的例句是《合同法》第十九条：Article 19 Irrevocable OfferAn offer may not be revoked:(i) if it expressly indicates, whether by stating a fixed time for acceptanceor otherwise, that it is irrevocable;(ii) if the offeree has reason to regard the offer as irrevocable, and has undertaken preparation for performance.第十九条有下列情形之一的，要约不得撤销：(一)要约人确定了承诺期限或者以其他形式明示要约不可撤销；(二)受要约人有理由认为要约是不可撤销的，并已经为履行合同作了准备工作。
法律英语翻译典型词语和句式泛瑞翻译一、典型法律禁令句型翻译之一“不得”字句用“不得”字句表达禁止性规范，庄重严肃，简洁明快。
“不得”一般译作shall not, 然而“不能”常译为may not,这和英文中一些否定表达方法对应一致，故不再重复。
要注意根据实际情况选择程度不同的否定表达方式。
例1：没收财产是没收犯罪分子个人所有财产的一部分或者全部。
在判处没收财产的时候，不得没收属于犯罪分子家属所有或者应有的财产。
（刑法第五十九条）参考译文：Confiscation of property refers to the confiscation of part of all of the property personally owned by a criminal. When a sentence of confiscation of property is imposed, property that the criminal’s family member owns or should own shall not be subject to confiscation. 与“不得”语义相近的还有“不许，不准，不能”等。
例2：判决宣告以前一人犯数罪的，除判处死刑和无期徒刑的以外，应当在总和刑期以下、数刑中最高刑期以上，酌情决定执行的刑期；但是管制最高不能超过三年，拘役最高不能超过一年，有期徒刑最高不能超过二十年。
参考译文：For a criminal who commits several crimes before a judgment is pronounced, unless he is sentenced to death or life imprisonment, his term of punishment shall be decided in such a way that it may not exceed the total of the terms for all the crimes and must be longer than the maximum term for any one of the crimes, depending on the circumstances of each case. However, the term of public surveillance may not exceed three years, the term of criminal detention may not exceed one year, and fixed-term imprisonment may not exceed twenty years.二、典型法律禁令句型翻译之二“禁止”字句“禁止”字句在汉译英的过程中通常译为be prohibited句式。
