A Study on Legal Vocabulary Translation Based on the Characteristics of Legal English Vocabulary

Abstract

Legal English is similar to other social languages, that is, it is a unique language function formed by people in long-term use according to various linguistic factors such as communication objects, communication purposes, and social and cultural environments, and the language rules and uses are relatively special. In addition, the special nature of the legal profession determines its complex and abstract English syntactic structure and terminology. In this paper, we take the lexical features of legal English as the starting point and analyze the translation strategies of legal vocabulary, hoping to provide reference for relevant researchers.
