Resumen: This second edition revises and up-dates the first edition that was published in 1979. Like its predecessor, this manual attempts to cover the practical and most common aspects of Spanish judiciary interpreting in the U.S. courts of law only [law enforcement, drugs, felonies, misdemeanors, labor disputes, immigration issues, domestic and juvenile matters and other things people go to court for]. There are sections on motorized vehicles and anatomy for personal injury cases; however, in such cases, medical dictionaries should also be consulted, depending on the types of injuries suffered. The Dictionary portion took into account the following factors: English- and Spanish-speaking countries have two very different legal systems- common law and Roman law, respectively. Thus, it is not always possible to have a word for word equivalent, but concepts that must be interpreted; each of the more than 20 Spanish-speaking countries of the world, has its own vernacular and regionalisms- wich have to be identified and learned by the interpreter according to the geographical region in which he/she works; the southwestern states have a Spanish-speaking population that has developed its own terminology over the centuries since the Conquistadors, so "Chicano" or Mexican-American [MA] has been included when possible; street language and drug slang changes constantly, from city to city and neighborhood, but the words included herein have remained pretty constant over the last decade or two.
