Linguistics and Translation

In our contemporary globalized landscape, effective communication stands as a linchpin for interconnectedness. The advent of modern technology, particularly the internet, has significantly diminished geographical barriers, fostering connections between people from diverse countries and cultures. The amalgamation of societies, however, presents a formidable challenge-communication across more than 7,000 languages. Translation emerges as a crucial solution to this linguistic diversity. Simply put, translation involves converting text, videos, or any other content from one language to another, with the term itself derived from the Latin word meaning "to bring or carry across." While it might seem like a task that a proficient multilingual individual could undertake, the reality is more complex.The book "Linguistics and Translation" is a comprehensive guide to the key concepts and theories in the fields of linguistics and translation.

The audience for this book includes students of linguistics and translation, as well as professionals such as translators, interpreters, and language teachers.
