中国官方给“检察院”的翻译是Procuratorate。
我在谷歌上查了一下这个词,我发现这个词只在和中国相关的网页上出现过,我没有见到其他的地方出现过这个词。
我有点怀疑这是中国人发明的一个英文词汇,英文世界根本没有这个词。
大家怎么看这个问题?

Public procurator
A public procurator (Chinese: 公诉人; 检察官) is an officer of a state charged with both the investigation and prosecution of crime. The office is a feature of a civil law inquisitorial rather than common law adversarial system. Countries such as Japan, China, Russia and Indonesia adopt the procuratorial system.
The office of a procurator is called a procuracy or procuratorate.The terms are from Latin and originate with the procurators of the Roman Empire.
