Explanation:
Definition of 'Limited Liability Company - LLC'
A corporate structure whereby the members of the company cannot be held personally liable for the company's debts or liabilities. Limited liability companies (LLC) differ slightly from one country to the next. However, it is essentially a hybrid entity that combines the characteristics of a corporation and a partnership or sole proprietorship. While the limited liability feature is similar to that of a corporation, the availability of flow-through taxation to the members of a LLC is a feature of partnerships.

Private Limited Company

A type of company that offers limited liability, or legal protection for its shareholders but that places certain restrictions on its ownership. These restrictions are defined in the company's bylaws or regulations and are meant to prevent any hostile takeover attempt.
The major ownership restrictions are: (1) shareholders cannot sell or transfer their shares without offering them first to other shareholders for purchase, (2) shareholders cannot offer their shares to the general public over a stock exchange, and (3) the number of shareholders cannot exceed a fixed figure (commonly 50). An example of a limited liability company is Chrysler Group, LLC, whose ownership is separate from its management.

A segunda pode ser entendida como Companhia de Participação Privada, por não ser no meu ponto de vista uma sociedade de cotas e sim limitada a um certo número de asssociados.

Asker: Obrigada Francisco, mas preciso mesmo de traduzir as duas, ou seja, a frase original é "Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) or Private Limited company (LTD)", pelo que necessito saber a diferença entre as duas!
