Description
Volume 2 of The German Legal System and Legal Language supplements Volume 1 and contains various Appendices of ancillary materials. It "offers for non-native speakers a rich source of information on how to translate German legal terms into English" (Dr Viola Heutger). Appendix A (the vocabulary), in particular, has been substantially expanded, revised and updated since publication of the last edition of the book in 2015. It contains definitions and explanations in English of innumerable German and Latin words and phrases referred to in Volume 1. Along with Volume 1 and the other Appendices, English-speaking readers are thereby provided with the necessary "tool box" for a better understanding of German legal concepts and rules.
