Art. 186. (207) Los instrumentos extendidos en idioma diverso del castellano, que las partes presentaren al juicio, serán acompañadas de su respectiva traducción.
El juez, de oficio o a petición de parte, podrá ordenar que la traducción sea revisada por un perito, que designará al efecto.
Si el documento fuere agregado por orden del juez expedida de oficio, será mandado traducir por un perito; y se agregarán a los autos el original y la traducción.
Los instrumentos públicos otorgados fuera de Chile se legalizarán en la forma expresada en el artículo 345 del Código de Procedimiento Civil.
Art. 214. (235) Si el testigo no supiere el idioma castellano, será examinado por medio de un intérprete mayor de dieciocho años, quien prometerá bajo juramento desempeñar bien y fielmente el cargo.
Por conducto del intérprete se interrogará al testigo y se recibirán sus contestaciones, las cuales serán consignadas en el idioma del testigo, si éste no entendiere absolutamente el castellano. En tal caso, se pondrá al pie de la declaración la traducción que de ella haga el intérprete.
Art. 215. (236) Si el testigo fuere sordo, las preguntas le serán dirigidas por escrito; y si fuere mudo, dará por escrito sus contestaciones.
Si no fuere posible proceder de esta manera, la declaración del testigo será recibida por intermedio de una o más personas que puedan entenderse con él por signos, o que comprendan a los sordo-mudos. Estas personas prestarán previamente el juramento de que se trata en el primer inciso del artículo precedente.
