WordPress tells me that 42,531 people viewed my blog content during 2023. I
am quite aware that’s hardly a drop in the bucket for many sites. But it may
actually be a lot for this ES-EN legal translation niche, and encourages me to
continue to add new entries in 2024. I say this because, not long ago, a
lawyer-linguist colleague suggested that my type of language-specific content
is no longer of much interest to translators and interpreters. He suggested
that the focus has now turned to other more technical topics, such as how to run a translation business, translator and interpreter training, the use of plain
or inclusive language, or the impact of AI on T&I, among others.

But I still have lots of ideas concerning the linguistic aspects of legal
translation that I want to add to my 300 already-published blog entries in the
upcoming months. They will still be organized in the same categories that I
invented when commencing the blog in 2016:

• False Friends (yes, I admit I’ve been
  called la loca de los falsos amigos)
• Multiple Meanings (Polysemy)
• Confusing Terms
• Frequent Mistranslations
• Español Jurídico
• Common Terms with Uncommon Legal Meanings
• Expressing Spanish Civil Law Concepts in Common Law Terms
• Latinismos
• Ellipses in Legal Spanish
• Capsule Vocabularies
• Terminology Sources,
• Legal Language in the US and UK

 ¿Nos vemos en 2024?
