[In this case there is a dispute over the translation of certain statements in a foreign language. It is for you to determine which, if either, translation is accurate.]
COMMENT
The Ninth Circuit has separate instructions for foreign language testimony and foreign language recordings. The model combines them and provides alternatives in brackets. See Ninth Circuit 2.6 and 2.7.The instruction concerning recordings is appropriate only if the accuracy of the translation is not at issue. See also Instruction 2.13 on transcriptions of recordings.
