    Do you mean accountancy, acounting or countability? If so, I think 'contabilidad' would be OK.

    Have a good weekend

    Hi Tim,

    It does exist and the proof is in the pudding. Just an example:

    "Desde el punto de vista de las estadísticas educativas elaboradas a nivel estatal, la contabilización oficial de alumnos extranjeros sólo tiene lugar desde el curso escolar 1992/1993 ..."
    "Los niños marroquíes en la escuela española"
    Laura Mijares

    I am also looking for a good translation into English.

    Yours,

    El Siciliano

    Just in case no one believes me:

    Luego en Google, hay más de 269,000 resultados para este término. Y finalmente, en el banco de términos de la ONU, una referencia obligatoria para cualquier traductor, consta el término con traducción a varias lenguas. Como traduzco del español y del árabe al inglés y viceversa busqué las traducciones correspondientes:

    Un abrazo para todos,

    Hi Siciliano, psyduck is quite right, if we take the RAE as a norm, the word is not accepted as such. On the other hand, it is obviously used in substitution of "the counting of"...

    So, the sentence would be translated , in my opinion, as:

    la contabilización oficial de alumnos extranjeros sólo tiene lugar desde el curso escolar 1992/1993 .

    The listing/the totaling/the recording of foreign students has only been elaborated since 1992/93

    ..foreign students have only been recorded/listed since the school-year 1992/93

    Tim, for your sentence we would need context first.

    saludos
