: I agree absoloutely. The original says 14:00 hours (which everyone in English speaking countries already understand) so to change it to something else would be a mis-translation.

I was asked to translate this " formally". Translation is an art that requires we perform beyond the scope of our biased and narrow-minded view. Not to take things literally..., but as it would best be rendered in the target language.

Russell Gillis
: I agree there is value in making modifications to make a text more understandable in the target language, but adding "local time" does not make the text any more readable/understandable. 2:00 p.m. works perfectly by itself.

How would you translate "SIENDO, las 14 horas". And, why do you think that in the above references, they keep adding 'local time' in conjunction with the meetings? This is for the sake of precision, even if some choose to drop it altogether. I can't.

Maria-Jose Pastor

Thanks for your comments! El papeleo legal en México no tiene mucha relación con la idiomática.
