Parole, Probation

Question

If parole in Spanish is "libertad condicional", is probation "condena condicional"?
I know the difference in English, not that I've ever been sentenced to either (haha), but I need a translation.

Answer 1

Sally
I think you protesteth too much. (and I know that isn't a current word)

Answer 2

Interesting , James.

Answer 3

(I incorrectly pasted the first time, so the above is an edited version.)

The two words are distinct in English, because parole always involves a conditional release from prison, while probation involves conditions being imposed without prison time. (This is not for you, Sally, but for others who may not know the difference.)

Answer 4

Parole = período de prueba, período de libertad vigilada, probación; libertad condicional

Probation = libertad bajo palabra, libertad condicional, libertad provisional

These are from the dictionary. As you can see, there some overlap, but maybe these are just bad glosses.
