Term:	A legal pun
EN > FR	#860718 by ankie (UN), 2016-12-11, 19:36 Spam? The old French doctrine of cy pres is still invoked in modern courts when a judge modifies a trust or settlement award.. The term is short for "cy près comme possible" - as near as possible. For a law review article exploring the possible over-use of this doctrine, I wish to use the title: How near is too near? The machine translation: Comment Près est Trop Près? I sense this is an awkward construction to a native speaker. Any advice on a natural phrase? Thank you
