TRANSLATION THEORY AND PRACTICE: BRIDGING LANGUAGES AND CULTURES
Abstract
Translation is more than just converting words from one language to another; it is a complex interplay of language, culture, and context. As globalization increases, the demand for effective translation continues to grow. Understanding translation theory is essential for practitioners to navigate the challenges of conveying meaning, tone, and cultural nuances. This article explores the key concepts in translation theory and their practical applications.
