Features: Facing another surge in translation in our country, remembering the noble mission of the translation profession and our responsibility to our colleagues in the translation field, we have solemnly launched this "Comprehensive Guide to Translation and Practice" on the basis of summarizing experience and promoting achievements. Our idea is: to strengthen planning, reflecting the new tasks and characteristics of translation in the information age and market economy environment, continue to promptly reflect the new development trends in translation studies, literary translation, and translation teaching, and pay more attention to the practical aspects of technical translation, legal translation, business translation, news translation, and other fields. We aim to enhance targeting and improve practicality, giving equal importance to translation from foreign languages to Chinese and from Chinese to foreign languages. We sincerely hope for the strong support and cooperation of our readers and authors. We hope our friends will help us realize our original intention and continue to contribute to the translation cause in China's new era.
