Features: With the increasing exchanges between China and the world, the role of translation has gained more attention. However, translation practice cannot lack theoretical guidance, and thus translation studies have emerged as an independent discipline under the demands of the times. Due to its inherent nature, translation studies inevitably involve many other fields of knowledge. As a result, there is an urgent need for a reference book that facilitates the consultation and retrieval of a large number of terms, concepts, and materials related to translation and its related disciplines. This dictionary is divided into 27 major categories, encompassing all aspects of translation studies, linguistics, psychology, information theory, communication studies, machine translation, and more. It also collects entries on figures and historical events in the history of translation in China and abroad. The content is rich yet concise, making it a valuable reference for those engaged in translation practice, teaching, research, writing on translation theories, exploring translation issues, cultural exchange, comparative literature, language teaching, information processing, and more.
