Thread: Como traducir "SE ENCUENTRA ASENTADO" en el acta...

Hi everybody,
I need help to translate a birth certificate containing the above words... any input on that?
thanks

POdes ir directamente por "that reads" o states that... Pero sin contexto de qué esta hablando es medio dificil.

Saludos,

Joselas tiene razon. Falta contexto. ¿Què tipo de acta es?
yo irìa por " it is recorded in the case file"

I have a birth certificate with the same phrase. I am going with "is set forth".

Hi, it is no need for more information that the given above. "asentar en el acta" means commit into paper, record, registrate. So, you can say " It is commited/registered/recorded in the minutes.

In the US, birth certificates are "recorded" in the Vital Records office of the County where the birth took place. That would have the same meaning of "SE ENCUENTRA ASENTADO"

CalifornianMan,
Is it wrong to say "Civil Register"

I have never heard of such an office. If you are referring to the office where weddings are recorded, that office is the County Registrar Recorder. The official in charge of that office is the County Clerk.

See the Los Angeles County Registrar Recorder office to see what is recorder in that office.

Records

Every state could be a little different but the names are somewhat similar. The offices also sometimes change their names over time.
