["Standard formulations for German contract texts with translations into English, French and Spanish"] The manual contains standard terminology and phraseology used when drafting German treaty texts or translating such texts into German from other languages. Its aim is to ensure a uniform rendering of the numerous terms and expressions occurring in international agreements of all kinds. It can also be employed for drawing up texts in English, French or Spanish. The four-language alphabetical index makes it easier to find the required term or expression in the systematically arranged main part.
