El traductor jurado prepara la traducción jurada.

Because both nouns are specific and singular:

• el traductor jurado = the sworn translator
• la traducción jurada = the sworn translation

Spanish uses definite articles very often, sometimes more often than English. Here they show that we are talking about a particular translator and a particular translation, not just any one.

Also, the article changes with grammatical gender:

• el for a masculine singular noun: traductor
• la for a feminine singular noun: traducción

They come from the same general idea, but they are different kinds of words:

• traductor = translator → a person
• traducción = translation → the result or product

This is similar to English translate, translator, and translation. Spanish often builds related words with different endings.

Here jurado means sworn or certified in an official legal sense, not jury.

So:

• traductor jurado = an officially authorized translator
• traducción jurada = an officially certified translation

In Spain, this is a specific legal/professional term. A traductor jurado is recognized to produce official translations that can be used for legal or administrative purposes.

In Spanish, adjectives usually come after the noun:

• traductor jurado
• traducción jurada

That is the normal order. Putting the adjective before the noun is possible in some cases, but it often sounds literary, emphatic, or changes the nuance. For this expression, the normal and natural order is noun + adjective.

Because adjectives in Spanish must agree with the noun in gender and number.

• traductor is masculine singular, so: jurado
• traducción is feminine singular, so: jurada

This is standard adjective agreement in Spanish.

For example:

• el documento oficial
• la copia oficial

Some adjectives do not change much, but many do, and jurado/jurada is one that changes.

Yes. In Spain, traductor jurado is a standard official term. It refers to a translator who is legally authorized to produce sworn translations.

So this is not just any translator who happens to be sworn in a general sense. It is a professional title or designation.

That is why the sentence may sound repetitive in English, but in Spanish it is perfectly natural:

• traductor jurado
• traducción jurada

Both are established expressions.

It is repetitive in form, but completely natural in Spanish because the two expressions mean different things:

• traductor jurado = the authorized person
• traducción jurada = the official translated document

Spanish often repeats related words when both ideas need to be clear. Removing one could make the meaning less precise.

For example, if you said only El traductor prepara la traducción, that would just mean The translator prepares the translation, without the specific legal meaning.

Prepara means prepares. It suggests the translator is producing or getting the sworn translation ready.

You could also say traduce in some contexts, but prepara la traducción jurada can sound more natural if the focus is on the official document as a finished product, not just the act of translating.

So:

• traduce focuses on the action of translating
• prepara focuses more on preparing/producing the official translation

Because prepara is the conjugated verb form for he/she prepares or you prepare (formal usted).

The subject here is El traductor jurado, so we need the third person singular form:

• preparar = infinitive = to prepare
• prepara = he/she prepares

So the sentence literally works as:

• El traductor jurado prepara...
• The sworn translator prepares...

Not in normal Spanish. That sounds unnatural and incomplete.

Spanish usually needs articles in this kind of sentence:

• El traductor jurado prepara la traducción jurada.

Without the articles, it would sound like a headline, a note, or very broken Spanish. In ordinary speech and writing, you should keep them.

The accent mark in traducción shows where the stress goes: tra-du-CCIÓN.

It also reflects a common spelling pattern in Spanish: many nouns ending in -ción have a written accent because the stress falls on the final syllable.

Other examples:

• nación
• información
• certificación

So traducción follows a very common pattern.

A simple approximate pronunciation is:

• traducción ≈ trah-dook-THYON in much of Spain
• jurada ≈ hoo-RAH-dah
• jurado ≈ hoo-RAH-doh

In much of Spain, the c before i or e is pronounced like th in think, so -ción sounds like -thyon. In Latin America, it is usually pronounced more like -syon.

Also, the j in Spanish is a strong throaty sound, not like the English j in job.

If the translator is a woman, Spanish would normally say:

• la traductora jurada

So the sentence would become:

• La traductora jurada prepara la traducción jurada.

Notice that all the related words agree:

• la → feminine
• traductora → feminine
• jurada → feminine

But traducción is always feminine anyway, so la traducción jurada stays the same.

Somewhat, but the original order is the most neutral:

• El traductor jurado prepara la traducción jurada.

Spanish can sometimes change word order for emphasis, but not all versions sound equally natural. For example:

• La traducción jurada la prepara el traductor jurado.

This is possible, but it gives special emphasis to the sworn translation.

For a learner, the safest pattern is:

• subject + verb + object

So the original sentence is the best model to follow.
