What's at stake here is the distinction between "judgement" and "condemnation," Urteil and Verurteling.

ja Doris.

@ Bion. Hast du ein paar Belege für Verurteilung - condemnation? Im rechtlichen Sinne stimmt das Paar nicht. Da müsste dann bei einem Eintrag ein Hinweis dazu. Auch habe ich von "sweeping condemnation" noch nie gehört.

Yes, I would say so, as a rule, as I suggested in my OP.

 

Muret-Sanders lists only Pauschalurteil and translates it as "sweeping judgement."

 

The additional element of the adverse, of disapproval, censure, blame, in both „condemnation“ and „Verurteilung” is not generally understood in “judgement,” in my experience. And even if it is, or may be, on occasion, it is certainly not explicit in the way that it is in those two nouns.

 

(I stumbled on the entry and this issue from the G., not the English, side when I looked up Pauschalverurteilung in LEO dict and found there only “sweeping judgement” – which, as I say, omits the explicitness of its being an adverse judgement.)

@jamqueen #4 Auch habe ich von "sweeping condemnation" noch nie gehört

There's a very large number of standard examples online.

Not in law, no, that's not my field (see asterisked note in OP), but in any other context, including LEO dict, Verurteilung is one regular translation of "condemnation" (and vice versa). I'm suprised you ask the question, but I take it you're thinking chiefly of law.

well, that might be Google. I had a look in yahoo.co.uk and a) very few results and b) American, Canadian and non-British sources/authors. (Indian, German etc.).

NB I usually ignore dictionary entries and focus on native sources.
