== Proz question re how to translate "bis" (in Dutch to English texts) ==
 '''Marijke Singer''': 
 
 Since there will always be debate on this, I tend to select one style guide and stick to it. I use the EU English Style Guide (which you can download):
 
 ''A reference such as Article 198a is not to a subdivision but to an article subsequently inserted after Article 198. In English, the letter is always in lower case and closed up to the number. In some languages, such articles are numbered Article 1 bis (ter, quater, quinquies, etc.). When translating, use the English form. (For national legislation, see 23.15.)''

 Much to my surprise, we've never had this in Dutch to English, though it's been discussed to death in French to English. I hope you won't mind my giving a reference in another language pair!

 It's confusing to translate this as 'a' or 'b' just because this numbering convention doesn't exist in English.
 
 artikel 311bis =
 article 311 bis
 
 (https://www.proz.com/kudoz/dutch-to-english/law-general/7185322-artikel-311bis.html)

== Whether numbering convention exists in English ==
 '''Michael Beijer''':
 
 on the debate as to whether this system of inserting stuff exists in English, I just found the following. Not quite the same context but fairly similar.
 
 "''3.8.3 Where ordinal numbers are used for a list of conditions (first, second, third etc) it is not obvious what to call a new condition that needs to be inserted into the middle of the list in future. The use of cardinal numbers (1, 2, 3 etc) or letters (A, B, C etc) is preferable. Future conditions can then be added as 1A, 2A, 3A or AA, BA, CA etc.''"
