Abstract
Undoubtedly, correct translation of legal texts is considered one of the most demanding challenges for translators. Moreover, exclusively certified translation produced by sworn translators is deemed legally binding. The object of the analysis are two divorce decrees – a Polish and a German one, respectively, which were excerpted from the book by Iluk and Kubacki (2006) and translated by the second-degree Students of Applied Linguistics at Maria Curie-Skłodowska University in Lublin, who at that point had already received two years of intensive training in legal translation. It was tested whether both formal and content-related principles of certified translation were followed by juxtaposing the students’ translation with the model certified translation published by Dahlmanns and Kubacki (2014), who are considered experts in this field. The results proved to be satisfactory, however, they also depict major difficulties, which are – in the vast majority of cases – typical of beginning translators.
