Introduction

　　Legal English is an essential skill for professional jurists working in an international setting. Notably in Taiwan, legal English is since 2011 a new professional subject, which is tested on national exams. In the light of these developments, the author hopes that this book might help students prepare for the national exams, but also promote their future legal careers in a globalized world.

　　This book introduces six legal topics focusing on contract law (Chapter 1), tort law (Chapter 2), company law and securities regulations (Chapter 3), constitutional law (Chapter 4), criminal law and criminal procedure (Chapter 5), as well as civil procedure law (Chapter 6). It thus offers a comprehensive and systematic overview that covers the broad scope of legal English as required by the national exams. In particular, the third edition of this book now also includes the legal English exam questions that have been tested on the national exams for judges, prosecutors and lawyers since 2011.1

　　Each chapter starts with a summary of Anglo-American law that explains some of the most significant rules and principles, including English-Chinese translations of basic words and phrases. The second part provides excerpts from respective laws in the Republic of China (Taiwan), which contain important key terms or are interesting from a comparative perspective. The third part encourages students to apply and practice their newly acquired knowledge by filling out certain exercises that will help them to become familiar and remember special terminologies. The correct answers can be found in the last part of each chapter, thus offering a useful tool for review and self-check.

　　Hoping that this book may serve as a valuable contribution for legal English courses taught at universities, as well as for objectives of self-study, the author would like to express her deep gratitude for the support from Fu Jen Catholic University, School of Law, its faculty members, administrative staff, and student assistants!

導讀

　　法學英文是法律人於國際上執業的必備能力。尤其在臺灣自民國100年起法學英文已被新增為國家考試的專業科目。就此趨勢發展而言，作者希望本書既可協助學生準備國考，並且也能促進學生將來在全球化的世界裡足以應付法律執業生涯。

　　本書介紹六個法學領域，集中於契約法（第一章），侵權法（第二章），公司法與證券交易法（第三章），憲法（第四章），刑法與刑事訴訟法（第四章），以及民事訴訟法（第六章）。因此本書提供整體性的概述，涵蓋國家考試所必要理解的法學英文範圍。本書的第三版本開始也包含自民國100年以來所有司法官和律師考試的法學英文試題。2

　　每一個章節首先解釋英美法中的核心規定與原則，包含基本單字及片語之英中翻譯。第二部分摘錄中華民國相關法律，特別是若有提到重要關鍵字或從比較法角度來看是有趣的條款。第三部分透過填寫練習，鼓勵並促進學生能應用新掌握到的知識，逐步讓學生熟練並記住專門術語。每章末附正確答案，既實用且有益於複習和自我能力檢視。

　　希望本書對於法學英文教學課程及學生自主學習目標能有所幫助，作者在此謹向輔仁大學、法律學院之教師同仁以及行政人員和教學助理等對本書寫作的支持，致上最深切的感謝。
