Learning outcomes

This course deals with and compares economic and business law terminology in Czech and Spanish. The course covers not only business law terminology proper, but also fields such as accounting, insurance, securities, banking or employment law. The terminology is then applied to translating prototypical documents of the respective fields, such as company foundation documents, certificates of incorporation, financial statements, or more complex contracts (e.g. an insurance or loan contracts). Business correspondence in Spanish and Czech is also analysed. Documents are translated both from and to Spanish.
Students acquire economic, financial and business law terminology. Students will be able to translate related documents and use available online and lexicograhic sources.
