This Master's thesis is focused on zero equivalence in legal texts. The theoretical part deals with technical text and legal language in general. Legal Spanish is characterized and compared to the legal Czech. Translation of the legal language is described along with some obstacles that may be associated with it. At the end of the theoretical part, there are several findings summarized, and the methodology for the practical part is delineated. In the practical part the reader is acquainted with the concept of equivalence and functional equivalence. Equivalence is divided into absolute, partial, and zero equivalence. The following chapters are concerned with the translation of the terminology with zero equivalence, specifically translation methods, strategies and stages. Furthermore, several legal terms are selected and evaluated on the basis of their equivalence. The terms are searched in order to discover their occurrences and counterparts in dictionaries, legal text databases and parallel corpus. Moreover, their possible translation is proposed and applied translation strategies named. The aim of the thesis is to define legal terminology with zero equivalence and provide the classification of the translational strategies that are frequently applied in translation of this kind of lexicon.
