“…The 18 th century saw the introduction of contemporary menus throughout Eastern Europe. The first modern menus were created by French restaurateur Pierre Boulanger, who in 1765 displayed the list of meals cooked that day and the chef's name outside his restaurant for the first time on a sizable sheet of paper with lovely designs (Fellman, 1981) The menus has gotten better every year, and it is now a genre of gluttonous discourse with its own creative style, sorts, and unique terminology. As challenging as it is for the translator to translate something into another language, creating a menus demands considerable expertise and understanding from the author and designer of the menus.…”

The lexical-semantic issues in translating food taste adjectives into Chinese are examined in this paper. Chinese food has a wide variety of colorful flavors. Correctly interpreting the adjectives that describe how food tastes is crucial. With tasty, simple-to-digest meals, it promotes and popularizes Chinese cuisine. Because, eating light, low-fat meals is crucial in today's world. Yet, due to poor translation and unclear menus, Chinese restaurants in CIS nations, particularly in Uzbekistan, are unpopular with customers. The biggest mistakes in Chinese restaurant menu are related to the incorrect translation of the taste adjectives of the food. This paper aims to identify the most erroneously translated Chinese adjectives, analyze them linguistically, and determine the cause of translation errors. The translation ability of 60 Chinese language translators with HSK 4 level is analyzed on the basis of experiment. Recommendations for solving the problem studied in this article have been developed.

The transfer of American management ideas was a central part of the Cold War struggle over ideologies. A key mediator was the European Recovery Program, which conveyed American influences to European management specialists. However, a direct influence was not always possible, as in Finland, which officially blocked assistance because of foreign policy considerations. Still, it was among the first countries to follow Harvard University’s lead in launching advanced management training. We examine how and why the focal actors adopted the American model of executive education, and how they managed to translate foreign ideas persuasively to the local business elite. The translation of executive education to Finland was a lengthy process that involved modification and readjustment of the original idea according to emerging needs. The Advanced Management Program became the core of the curriculum of Finland’s leading executive education institution and thus has influenced the emergence of new business culture.
