This diploma awarding him this degree is issued Explanation: There are a few ways to translate diplomas. In Spanish-speaking countries, you are licensed as a practitioner of whatever profession you studied. In English-speaking countries, you usually study a major and receive a degree (B.A., B.S.) that allow you to practice a profession. Some fields of study require further certification (i.e., doctor, lawyer, accountant). I prefer to translate diplomas as reflecting the degree and not the licensed profession which really does not exist as such for most majors. |

The present diploma [formally] recognizes him as such. Explanation: "Se expide el presente diploma" strikes me as redundant. I assume that "tal" refers to the degree earned (if diploma is from an institution of higher learning) or graduation attained (if diploma is from a secondary school). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 42 mins (2017-06-13 21:07:40 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Given Luisa's clarification, I would amend my suggestion to: The present diploma recognizes his satisfactory completion of this program of study. *** This is the language used in diplomas in the US. Replicating the use of pronouns will produce strange (if not incomprehensible) English here. |
