May not 与shall not 的翻译

在法律英语中,情态动词may 和 shall 的否定形式比肯定形式的翻译难度更大。问题在于,否定形式究竟和哪一个部分相关?它不仅仅指情态动词本身,它还和主动词相关或者和主语相关。因此在翻译情态动词的否定形式时,可能会产生歧义,难以确定真实的法律含义。

情态动词May的翻译

May 在法律英语中主要有两种解释。一是表示“给予许可”或者“给予某人做某事的授权”二是表示“也许”或者“可能性”

一是表示“给予许可”或者“给予某人做某事的授权”(be allowed to or have permission to),这一含义多用于法律法规中。

二是表示“也许”或者“可能性”(be in some degree likely to),这一含义多用于法律合同中。

情态动词Shall的翻译

Shall 在法律英语中的词义不同于普通英语中的词义。它在法律英语中主要表示“指示性”、“施为性”含义和行使权利的“义务”和“责任”。
