Talk:Court of appeal (France)

translator notes

• I am not a legal professional in either language so the specialized vocabulary/ translation problems still need/are gradually getting refinement. For instance "droit commun" translates word for word as "common law" but French common law is likely to be significantly different than common law based on the British model.

• • while I am thinking of it droit can mean either a "right" if used with an indefinite article or a "body of law" if used with "the" rather than "a". Law as in a piece of legislation is a loi, and procès-verbal has numerous meanings but "written transcript" is one of the more generic Elinruby (talk) 01:43, 16 August 2016 (UTC)

• wikilinks verified/disambiguated

• I brought this out of the translation wizard a bit early because I was notified the French original had changed. Have been concentrating on making the english coherent, Will come back to make sure all French text is translated. I don't think it is so if something is confusing that might be why.

@Elinruby: 2016 + 7: pretty good, for pre-dating the Glossary of French criminal law by seven years, which now resolves some of your questions from back then. Mathglot (talk) 08:20, 18 September 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the reminder. I want to get back to this once I get the last few references ironed out at the black market article. But since I am currently burned out on that and taking a break from it, this would definitely be a good place to knock out some solid work. Brazil too, although it looks like Tres Fronteras is one of those things that don't get written about much because everybody knows. Glossary would be easier there also.
