sustained and overwhelmingly Explanation: sobrevenido should be as 'sustained' and sobrevenidamente = overwhermingly It is play of words in the Spanish sentence. All the best |

ensuing Explanation: From the Harper Collins SP<>EN: (resultar) to follow, ensue The following excerpt from an online legal dictionary also gives a clue of what is meant by "sobrevenido": "Esto implica que el dolo del agente tiene que anteceder o ser concurrente en la dinámica defraudatoria, no valorándose penalmente, en cuanto al tipo de estafa se refiere, el dolo "subsequens", es decir, sobrevenido y no anterior a la celebración del negocio de que se trate." http://www.nodo50.org/iusred/diccionario/dicciojurid.htm. Note that "sobrevenidamente" would be translated as "subsequently," as there is no such adverb as "ensuingly" :-) Harper Collins Google search |
