In general, Translation is “an operation on languages: a process of substituting a text in one language for a text in another”. Documentary translation is regarded as an act of communication which tackles legal translation. Legal translation is a special type of an act of communication which takes place “in the mechanism of the law”. Only professional translators specialize in legal translation because legal translation is the foundations of social relationship as marriage, contract, agreements and civil rights such as wills and inheritance. Moreover, when translating a text within the field of law, the translator should keep the following in mind. The legal system of the source text (ST) is structured in a way that suits that culture and this reflected in the legal language similarly to the target language (TT). The general characteristic features of English and Arabic legal translation are lexical, discourse-level and syntactic features.
Legal translation is special type of an act of communication which takes place in the mechanism of the law.

Strayed’s use of descriptive imagery allows her to effectively convey her message. Throughout the memoir, Cheryl communicates the life lessons of focusing on the present and being happy about the little things in life. For example:
Tran states a language is a tool of her trade which she loves because it evokes an emotion and it’s a visual image alone. She also talks about how people who barely speak clear English call it Broken English even though to her its clear English it just lacks a certain wholeness and soundness but not broken. Another key point Tran’s points out would be how Asian Americans are better at Math then they are in English but she is a proven factor that Asians can be creative writers
Have you ever experienced what it feels like to be bullied for your differences? I was in the 5th grade when I first encountered what it meant to be ridiculed for the way you speak. There was a time when my classmates made fun of another boy for the way he was speaking English. The boy was very quiet and only spoke to his cousin during class. The only language he was comfortable speaking was Chinese. My classmates at the time were taking turns recreating what they thought his language sounded like. Every so cruelly they mocked him in a way that was extremely racist; they were bullying him. I specifically remember one girl telling him, “Does your language sound like, ching chong, chong?”, she proceeded to laugh while she asked him. I never stuck up for him when I heard this, and I feel ashamed till this day that I didn’t speak up for him. Language shaming can come from anyone, and it takes many forms. In “Coming to Language” by Jimmy Santiago Baca, the passage gives us a personal experience, he has with language shaming from a teacher and how it affected his life and his journey of finding freedom through writing. In addition we see, another example of language shaming in “Living with Dyslexia” by Gareth Cook where he talks about his learning disorder and how it altered his relationship with teachers and his life. There is great similarity between Baca, Cooks and I’s encounter with teachers and language shaming. Since I’ve been in college, I have had three professors tell me

Language is the inevitable medium that people use as a means of communication. However, how that person uses the language that they have varies from person to person. Some view language as a persuasive political instrument and others view it as a means of expression and empowerment. In the essay “If Black English Isn’t a Language, Then Tell Me, What Is?” by James Baldwin, he was able to illustrate the history of the discrimination of language and how black English is not accepted as its own language. Baldwin also shows that due to the lack of acknowledgement of black English, it lacks the power it needs to empower the people who speak it. In the essay “Politics and the English Language” by George Orwell, he was able to break down language and explain how language shapes reality. Orwell expresses that he is not considering the literary use of language, but language is an instrument of expression and the promotion of cognitive deliberation and persuasion. Furthermore, both these authors agree that language is a political instrument, however, Baldwin uses this instrument to unite people and Orwell uses the instrument to persuade people.
Language is something that we need and use for everything in our lives. Language is, “a symbolic communication system that is learned instead of biologically inherited.” (O’Neil, 2006).

Firstly, it is thought to be "a category of its own right, the ultimate linguistic challenge combining the inventiveness of literary translation with terminological precision of technical translation". Legal terms are precise and must be selected cautiously paying attention not to substitute a term with a relevant one. Secondly, unlike technical and scientific languages, legal language depends on the legal system to which it belongs. Each country has its own legal system which means that there are as many legal systems as there are countries which is of course a load on legal translators. Thirdly, legal terminology are not only system dependent but are language dependent too. Countries of different languages undoubtedly differ in their legal systems. However, we must also note that even countries sharing the same language have different legal systems. Saudi Arabia, for instance, has its own legal system different than the Egyptian one although they are all written in Arabic. In addition, most legal terms refer to abstract concepts and are not defined through referential properties, but rather intentionally , using other abstract concepts. Legal terminology also shows a considerable overlap with language for general
Through looking at patterns of social interaction of different languages it is easy to predict the linguistic results of language contact. This could be seen through multilingualism which is a result of language contact between multiple different languages. Multilingualism can create diglossia which helps display the multilingualism of a country or community and helps show it is useful for predicting the results of language contact. Code switching in which people switch from one language to another depending on the situation, helps show how social interaction between speakers of different languages helps us predict the linguistic results of language contact.
