THE ROLE OF CULTURAL CONTEXT IN TRANSLATION
Abstract
This article examines the significant role of cultural context in the translation process. Translation is not merely the transfer of words from one language to another but serves as a bridge between cultures. Properly translating cultural elements, idioms, proverbs, and social contexts is one of the primary challenges faced by practitioners. Based on a literature review, this article demonstrates the impact of cultural competence on translation quality and proposes strategies for translating while preserving cultural context.
