Abstract

Translation is an interlanguage activity. It is the integration of receptive and productive skills in comprehending and reproducing the decoded message via either the graphic medium or the oral medium. Besides being the integration of skills, translation involves the integration of two cultural systems and thought processes of the source language and the target language (the language into which the source language is translated). Therefore, the messages to be transferred from one language to the other are linguistic, socio-psychological, stylistic and cultural.
