Journal Title: In Translation / في الترجمة - Year 2020, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
There are many approaches and models for Translation Quality Assessment (TQA), which are based on theories in translation and linguistics. What are these approaches and models? What are their potentials and Limitations? What is the relationship between them? The aim of this article is to introduce some of the most important approaches and models for TQA, both quantitative and non-quantitative, based on the descriptive analytical method. The study concludes the importance of translation assessment with its different models, and the necessity of using them instead of relying on subjective judgement.
