/bɑr tu ˈnɑvəlti/ – Pharse
Definition: trở ngại (cho việc cấp bằng sáng chế) về tính mới mẻ.
A more thorough explanation: The legal English definition of the term “bar to novelty” refers to a legal principle in patent law that prevents the grant of a patent for an invention that has been disclosed to the public before the patent application was filed. This principle is intended to ensure that patents are only granted for truly new and inventive inventions.
Example: The patent application was rejected due to the bar to novelty, as the invention had already been disclosed in a prior publication.
