Abstract:

Patient Information Leaflets (PILs) are documents included in medicine packages and provide important information about the medication for patients. This study investigates the translation problems of English PILs into Sorani Kurdish. The aim of this study is to identify the translation procedures used for translating medical terminologies in PILs for lay people. It also aims to reveal which translational norms are operating in Kurdish translations of PILs. To do so, the study employs a corpus of 150 English PILs along with their Kurdish translations. To analyse the corpus, the researcher adop

Abstract:

Metaphor is a prevalent figure of speech found in many languages. Because medical language and terminologies in general are so intricate and complex, translating medical metaphors may be a challenging task. The fundamental problem with medical metaphors is that they frequently refer to different cultural and linguistic settings, which makes it difficult to find comparable terminology in another language that expresses the same meanings and subtleties. The study aims to translate medical metaphors into Arabic and since medical metaphors, like any other metaphors, can be linguistic and conceptua

Abstract:

Translation of medical terms from English into Serbian implies observing lexical and grammatical rules of the Serbian language in order to have appropriate, precise and correct translation equivalents. The problem exists in translating complex phrases, because English has a compounding feature whereas the same idea in Serbian has to be descriptively expressed. Examples of inadequately translated terms taken from medical dictionaries, books and research papers of Serbian doctors are presented with suggestions how to remedy the situation.

Abstract:

In this introductory essay, we will present a translational medical humanities approach where the humanities are not only an auxiliary to medical science and practice, but also an interdisciplinary space where both medicine and the humanities mutually challenge and inform each other. First, we explore how medicine’s attempt to tackle the nature–culture divide is emblematically expressed in the concept and practice of knowledge translation (hereinafter KT). Second, we compare and contrast KT as an epistemic ideology and a socio-medical practice, with concepts and practices of translation develo

Abstract:

Translations in the Middle Ages were the clearest route for the transmission of knowledge between countries and cultures. Furthermore, translation led to the creation a body of scientific terminology for languages that lacked their own, as in the case of Medieval Hebrew. This paper examines one of these translations: Isaac Israeli’s Book on Fevers. Two paragraphs from the Hebrew translation of the Book on Fevers (one from the opening, the other describing medicinal substances) have been selected to analyze how the translator worked with a medical text in Hebrew. The terminology in both was com

Abstract:

The aim of the present article is to discuss the concept of the translator as a surgeon who in the process of translation, like a surgeon in the operating room, performs various operations on the source text. The translator shortens the original removing its fragments, makes it longer by implanting new words or solely changes the source language into the target one. Yet, the translator always leaves the text covered with scars for the sake of preserving the overall clarity of the message. The above issues are addressed in the context of medical translation and illustrated with examples showing

Abstract:

Translational research is aimed at turning discoveries from basic science into results that advance patient treatment. The translation of technical solutions into clinical use is a complex, iterative process that involves different stages of design, development, and validation, such as the identification of unmet clinical needs, technical conception, development, verification and validation, regulatory matters, and ethics. For this reason, many promising technical developments at the interface of technology, informatics, and medicine remain research prototypes without finding their way into cl

Abstract:

Error analysis (EA) has been broadly applied to the researches of writing, speaking, second language acquisition (SLA) and translation. This study was carried out based on Carl James' error taxonomy to investigate the distribution of lexical errors in Chinese-English (C-E) translation of drug package inserts (DPIs), explore the underlying causes and propose some translation strategies for correction and reduction of lexical errors in DPIs. A translation corpus consisting of 25 DPIs translated from Chinese into English was established. Lexical errors in the corpus and the error causes were anal
