Abstract

This research paper presents a comprehensive study of norms-based skopos in legal translation between Arabic and English, aiming to highlight the legal translation norms via the skopos theory. The problem is whether the skopos in legal translation is the source or the target text-oriented, and which norms a translator can retain to align the skopos.
