Having been fulfilled all the requirements of the law, (he) bleseed the marriage Explanation: Sorry that I am late, I would like to explain this further: It is an ablative absolute (servatis), and "servandis" is gerundive, lit. "what must be fulfilled". Or: "After legal formalities had been fulfilled", that's the solution for a similar question but in the Spanish>English pair: http://www.proz.com/kudoz/spanish_to_english/law_general/781... |
