Globalization Effect on Localized Translation of Technical and Scientific Terms
Journal Title: In Translation / في الترجمة - Year 2021, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
This article aims to investigate some language translation difficulties, mainly English - Arabic translation of technical and scientific terms, that are, mostly, affected by localization and globalizing. It also highlights the main effects of globalization on both translation and localization processes. In fact, due to globalizing, many translators may need to recreate, or “trans-create”, some terms to provide an acceptable cultural demand, that may save them in the process of localization. Yet, the major role played by internet and new technologies, in the worldwide process of communication, leads to a great need for both translation and localization services, notably, in the recent years.
