Both Chinese and English legal discourses have their own lexical features, such as those concerning connectives, diversity of items, repetitions, paraphrases, restatements, and coloring, etc.; syntactically, each has its own conventions of word order, topic-comment relations, structural characteristics; rhetorically, Chinese discourse attaches importance to Qichengzhuanhe or indirectness at the macro-level, and paratactic at the micro-level, as against the English way of being linear or direct at the macro-level, and hypotactic at the micro-level.

法庭口译既具有语用交际属性，也具有法律属性，因此法庭口译人员在进行口译实践时不能仅满足于割裂上下文和语境的局部性字面意义传译(semantic translating / interpreting --- local)，而应当把法庭提问者和法庭答问者的互动性话语看作是一个依赖和利用上下文及有关情景因素的整体性的语用行为，努力理解并传译其中的整体含义（ pragmatic translating / interpreting --- global ）。
