English to Spanish Legal Translation Each Spanish market has its own legal system, and it can be rather complex to understand it. Other colleagues can help you compare source and target terminology and Spanish legal concepts.

Default et al.
How can I translate "et al." into Spanish? Should it remain the same or should I translate it as "y otros"?

Es una abreviación latina que significa et alii (masculino plural), "y otros," et aliae (feminino plural), "y otras" o et alia (neutral plural), "y otros."

No se suele traducir. Si te lo piden,

...y otros.

... y col. (y colaboradores)

No se legó al hombre mayor calamidad que la mujer."

Cada día se aprende algo nuevo. Yo conocía su significado en español, pero no en latín.
Como bien dices, y hasta donde sé, ningún editor traduce esta locución, y casi siempre la presentan en cursiva, para indicar precisamente que se trata de una locución latina: et al.

Saludos

Tal cual... no lo traduzcas. Te paso una lista de expresiones en latín que en general se dejan tal cual, tanto en inglés commo en español: http://recursos.cnice.mec.es/latingr...esl133dt04.htm

Hope it helps!

Hola David, en España sí se traduce

e.g.: p.ej. (por ejemplo)

Y normalmente se suele traducir también, a no ser que sea un escrito muy oficial:

i.e. : es decir, esto es...

Default at al.
"et al." is translated in Argentina, especially in the legal system.

e.g.: "AA c/ BB y otros s/ Daños y Perjuicios"

In the scientific field, the scientific essays are generally written by a group. Sometimes the groups are so big that it is written as "Fulano, Mengano, et al." understanding that Fulano is the head and director of the group.
We never translate the et al.
