Extensive searches across multiple scholarly catalogs (including UNESCO Index Translationum, OpenAlex, and Google Books) yielded no evidence of an English translation for Lorenzo Valla's 'De elegantiis terminorum'. The search results primarily highlight Valla's more famous works, such as 'De falso credita et ementita Constantini donatione' and 'Dialectical Disputations', but contain no record of 'De elegantiis terminorum' being translated into English. Given the lack of any bibliographic record for such a translation, it is highly probable that none exists.
