qualities of a good translator

[الواثقة بالله]

We all know that translation is more than just a mechanical exercise in looking up words in a dictionary and substituting the grammatical constructions of one language for those of another. Often there is no one-to-one equivalence between words in different languages - for instance, a particular word might have different emotional connotations in the other language. A professional translator will be aware of these potential difficulties and know how to cope with them. Thus,lets go over the qualities that can make us good translators.

What are the qualities of a good translator?

*a sophisticated understanding of the foreign language.


*an understanding of the topic being translated>>** important

*an ability to transfer ideas expressed in one language into an equally meaningful form in the other language.

*an above-average capacity to write well in the target language (the language in which the translation is written), using language appropriate for the topic and readership.

*broad general knowledge.

*a sound knowledge of the two cultures involved.

*mental agility .

*sensitivity and attention to detail .

*an understanding of specialized terminology in the field of the translation and a willingness to do further research if necessary .

*training or experience.
