Shona Whyte's insight:

Used in SGADS (Sensibilité de la Grammaire Anglaise au Degré de Spécialisation) research (Pic, Furmaniak, Debras) at the Sorbonne.  See also June workshop to mark "the end of the SGADS project (Grammatical variation across academic genres), a project founded by the Research Council of the Université Sorbonne Nouvelle and coordinated by Elsa Pic and Grégory Furmaniak (http://www.univ-paris3.fr/2012-2013-du-discours-specialise-au-discours-vulgarise-sensibilite-de-la-grammaire-anglaise-au-degre-de-specialisation-140801.kjsp). The aim of the workshop is to present the main results from the project but also to extend the discussion to other related issues." http://linguistlist.org/issues/24/24-1028.html

EUR-Lex - Simple search

EUR-Lex - Simple search | TELT | Scoop.it

Shona Whyte:

This search engine allows you to access the database of European legislation in any EU language and it brings up texts which are available in at least two languages.

 

My colleague Margarita Georgieva who teaches translation at the University of Nice explains:

 

"If you are looking for legislative texts or any specialized texts, there is a database of translations which has both English and French versions - http://eur-lex.europa.eu/
You can search for keywords. From tissue paper to toothpaste and fisheries... anything you think of, they have it.  […] They are great to use in class - to compare translations and suggest improvements or to learn vocabulary."
