This bestselling coursebook addresses the need for a systematic approach to training in translation studies by drawing on key areas in modern linguistic theory and relating them systematically to a number of translation problems and strategies. The strategies are identified by an examination of authentic examples of translated texts in a variety of languages. No knowledge of linguistics or foreign languages is assumed. Each chapter begins with an explanation of the key linguistic concepts referred to and ends with a series of practical exercises. By striking a balance between theory and practice, the books provides a sound basis for training professional translators.Baker, Mona is the author of 'In Other Words A Coursebook on Translation' with ISBN 9780415030854 and ISBN 0415030854.
