English term or phrase: county clerk / register
Boa tarde colegas,
num certificado de nascimento surge no final do mesmo a seguinte frase:
I, xxx, clerk/register of said county of xxx do hereby certify...
xxx county clerk/register

Como traduzir aqui este "register"? É que "registrar" traduzi por "conservador do registo civil". Aqui, register só se pode estar a referir ao registo, não é assim?

Obrigada!

conservador
Explanation:
O termo parece estranho, mas quando pesquisei no Google "clerk/register" apareceram várias páginas de registos de condados no estado de Michigan. Deve ser dos poucos estados a adoptar tal designação... eu diria "conservador" simplesmente ... não vejo maneira de fazer mais distinção em PT-PT

"escrivão/conservador do condado" parece-me muito bem...secretário, não
Boa sorte

Asker: obrigada mais uma vez. Eu tb achei estranho... então, acha que devo traduzir simplesmente como "conservador"? O que acha de "secretário/conservador do condado"? ou "escrivão/conservador do condado"?

Explanation:
escrivão or secretário seems a better option to me. I have used them in this context in certificates I have done.
