On the Translation Process in Special and General Sense

Abstract

The term “process” in translation refers to the dynamic meaning of translation, which can be divided into special translation and general translation. Special translation process refers to the process of the translator’s conversion of the specific text, which is, the process of the translator’s conversion from the original text to the final target text. The translator’s understanding and re-expression are the two basic steps in this process. Special translation process is not only a simple process of languages conversion, but also involves the process of text selection, text research, text understanding and interpretation, text generation and text acceptance.
