This paper\u0000 describes the multilayered sequential approach to corpus building applied in a\u0000 comparative study on legal translation in three of these settings. The approach\u0000 is based on a full mapping and categorization of institutional texts from a\u0000 legal perspective; it applies an innovative combination of stratified sampling\u0000 techniques integrating quantitative and qualitative criteria adapted to the\u0000 research aims.

Based on the typology of\u0000 causes of denominative variation proposed by Freixa Aymerich (2006, 52), this paper examines the\u0000 presence of dialectal and cognitive variations in US business law language as\u0000 compared to Peruvian business law language.

Our findings generally\u0000 confirm the increased aggregate formulaicity of translations as regards bundle\u0000 tokens for all EU genres, except for judgments, and the increased variation of\u0000 bundles (types) for all the genres at the 40 occurrences per million words (pmw)\u0000 threshold, although the “micro-formulaicity” threshold yielded inconclusive\u0000 results. Another finding reveals a consistently low overlap of bundles between\u0000 translations and non-translations.
