use numbers, not words Explanation: Opinions clearly differ on this - see the discussion entries. But I believe using words looks silly in English, and you should change them in the same way as you would substitute commas for full stops in numbers, and turn long, convoluted sentences into shorter ones. Legal documents should be translated closely and accurately, but not slavishly. |
