- Style Guide
- 应当 – We reserve use of the word ‘shall’ for translating 应当, to mean an imperative future tense. Please do not translate 应当 as ‘should’. Also please don’t use ‘shall’ as a general future tense, try will instead. 应 by itself is translated as ‘should’
- 可以 is translated as may, implying discretion- please do not translate it as can, which expresses an ability or availability as in 能 or 会
- 境外/境内 –境外 is translated as foreign, even though it includes Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macao. We usually note this in the comments or text. If it helps clarity， 境内may be translated as “within the mainland territory” or the like.
- 无期徒刑– As 2017/5/26 we are changing our translation of this term to an ‘indeterminate prison term’ which is a more accurate translation than ‘life sentence’ which we used previously. Documents will be slow in changing over.
- Dates should take the format of year/month/date, making them easy to change over from Chinese 年/月/日 We have been inconsistent with this in the past.
- IF- should generally be reserved for situations where a legal document expressly contains a hypothetical ‘如果’ ‘要是’ or the equivalent. Where there isn’t an express hypothetical, you can use a sentence beginning with ‘where’ to express the same idea.
- ….时 – try to reserve the word ‘when’ for translating ‘时’to describe a time.
