在公证书翻译中,公证书结尾经常有类似语句“In Faith and Testimony whereof I have hereunto set may hand and affixed my Seal of Office this 18th October 2008”。

这句话翻译比较费神。首先,我们来逐段分析:

“Hereunto“指在公证书上;
”Set my hand“指签名;
”Affixed my Seal of Office“,指盖公证处印章;
最头疼的是”In Faith and Testimony whereof“,直译为“以我的信仰与诚信证明“之类。
这样全句直译为”以我的信仰与诚信证明,我于2008年10月18日在此公证书上签署我的姓名并盖公证处印章”。

这种直译感觉有点不符合中国国情,建议采用更通用的意译:“我宣誓,以上证明属实,并于2008年10月18日在此公证书上签名并盖公证处印章”。

以昭信守,特此为证


Explanation:
This is a rather standard legal clause in a notarized document (e.g. in Common Law context).

See the bottom part of this link for the example.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Act_(document)

Suggest to use a more formal version in the target Chinese version as follows:

本公证人(于有关文件)上签名并盖章,以昭信守,特此为证。

供参考。
