Optuenikovo izjanjavanje je uglavnom bilo da nije kriv, a alternativno bi dobio blau kaznu.
Tj, rečenica se moe podijeliti i na dva dijela, pa bi to onda zvučalo ovako:
Optuenikovo izjanjavanje je uglavnom bilo da nije kriv. Alternativno (u suprotnom) bi dobio blau kaznu.

Sve najbolje.

Marija Vujosevic Caric: ukoliko se slazete da u pravu treba koristiti nepostojeci jezik

-> ne znam koliko ste se susretali s pravnim dokumentima, ali oni vrve ovakvim "nepostojecim" izrazima (tacije, strucnim izrazima). "podredno" je ocito standard u hrvatskom pravu jer sam svojim ocima vidio da ga koristi vise pravnika u Hrvatskoj

disagree

dkalinic: podredno ne znači alternatively. Pravnici su kod nas ionako poznati po krivoj uporabi rječničkog blaga.

-> zao mi je, moje iskustvo je drugacije. smatram da dosta pravnika (barem onih vrhunskih) ima izuzetno prefinjen osjecaj za jezik. mislim da treba postovati jezik profesije, a posebno ako se radi o tako osjetljivoj oblasti kao sto je pravo.

dakle, ja sam to ovako shvatila, ali nisam sigurna da je to to, nesto mi fali u recenici...
Optuzenik se izjasnio kao da nije kriv, te je dobio blazu zamjensku kaznu???
