For translation software, see machine translation. For other meanings of translation see Translation (disambiguation).
Translation is the act of rendering text in one language - the source - into another, the target.
Among practitioners, a distinction is generally made between translation, where the source and target texts are written, from interpreting or interpretation, where the source and target are spoken. From the point of view of analyzing the processes involved (translation studies), it is perhaps more useful to treat interpreting as a subcategory of translation.
The translation process can be logically divided into two steps: 1. The meaning must be decoded from the source language, and 2. This meaning must be re-encoded with the target language. For precise translation, both of these steps often require knowledge of both the semantics of the language and the culture of its speakers.
A successful translation approaches two ideals:
To be a good translator, one must be not only at ease in the source language, but also a skilled writer in the target language. For this reason, most translators choose to translate into their mother tongue.
All forms of literature and speech can be translated, including novels, movies, computer and video games, poetry, speeches, and non-fiction.
Different areas are of varying difficulty of translation, however. Computer and video games usually have Japanese as the source language and English as the target language.
Non-fiction works that are translated may include corporate and consumer documents, government works, and scholarly texts.
Non-fiction is usually more straight-forward to translate than literary works, as meaning is more important than form and because the content is clearer and less metaphorical.
Therefore, some believe that translating non-fiction texts requires little knowledge of culture or artistic aspects, so this task generally falls to companies staffed by low-skilled workers.
This includes the translation of manuals and other business and professional texts.
However, highly nonsensical translations may result if skilled writers in the source language are not used nor local factors taken into account.
For example, differences in lexicon between two regions that use the same language may result in ridiculous or even obscene results.
A quality translation will take this into account; this is known as localization.
Many governments also do a great deal of translating.
For instance the government of Canada must translate all official documents into English and French.
The European Union has many official languages and must employ a large number of translators.
Scholarly texts and nonfiction books are usually translated by skilled professional translators.
Metalanguage works, that is, works that discuss language, can be extremely difficult to translate usefully.
If the translation of non-fiction works is regarded as a skill the translation of fiction and poetry is much more of an art.
Some writers, such as Vladimir Nabokov, have made a name for themselves as literary translators per se.
Many consider some forms of poetry to be almost impossible to accurately translate, depending on how well the form as well as the content can be rendered in the target language.
This question was expertly explored, and a mostly positive answer given, in Douglas Hofstadter's 1997 book, Le Ton beau de Marot.
The translation of religious works has played an important role in world history. For instance the Buddhist monks who translated the Indian sutras into the Chinese language would often skew the translation to better adapt to China's very different culture.
Thus notions such as filial piety were stressed.
The translation of the Christian Bible has long been of great import.
St. Jerome is still considered one of the greatest translators in history for his work on translating the work into Latin.
Jerome's translation was used by the Catholic Church for centuries, but even his translation met much controversy when it was released.
The Protestant Reformation saw the translation of the Bible into the local languages of Europe, and act condemned by the Catholic Church and one that had a great impact on the split between Protestantism and Catholicism.
Martin Luther's Bible in German and the King James Bible in English had immense impacts on the religion, culture, and language of those countries.

The reason that machine translation - translation performed by computer programs - is not a straightforward task is that one does not translate words - the "surface structure" in linguistics - but rather the meaning or "deep structure." Since computers are not sentient, the meaning is inaccessible to them.
In recent years the long anticipated goal of machines assisting in the translation process has met with limited success.
The goal of converting information from one language to another automatically is a major goal of natural language processing.
The international plaza of the internet has been a promising testing ground for these technologies, such as Alta Vista's Babel Fish.
Such programs can produce results that are broadly comprehensible but which do not come close to idiomatic quality.
Human translators are still necessary for the production of documents that are meant to be used in any generalized context.
However, in domains with highly limited ranges vocabulary and meaning, for example weather reports, machine translation can deliver excellent automated results.
Machine translation should not be confused with computer-assisted translation, which is the use by human translators of various software programs to aid in their work.
Besides standard dictionary and grammar software, a range of specialized programs are available for the translator.
For example, translation memory software packages "learn" turns of phrase frequently employed to render standard phrases in the source language, and suggest them when they recur in the same or other documents.
(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
The key actors involved in translation are the ribosome, which consists of two subunits, the messenger RNA (mRNA), several transfer RNAs (tRNA) as well as numerous other protein factors. Translation proceeds in three phases: initiation, elongation, and termination (all describing the growth of the amino acid chain, or polypeptide that is the product of translation).
Transfer RNA (tRNA) is a small RNA chain (74-93 nucleotides), which is responsible for carrying amino acids in to the prokaryotic ribosome, which in turn links them together to form a protein. It has sites for amino-acid attachment and codon (a particular sequence of 3 bases) recognition. The codon recognition is different for each tRNA and is determined by the anticodon region, which contains the complementary bases to the ones encountered on the mRNA. Each tRNA molecule binds only one type of amino acid, but because the genetic code is degenerate, more than one codon exists for each amino acid.
Amino acids must be attached to the tRNA. This is achieved by enzymes termed amino acyl tRNA synthetases. There exists a different synthetase for each amino acid. This enzyme catalyses the binding of the amino acid with ATP. PP is released to form an amino acid-AMP complex. A tRNA molecule is then substituted for the AMP to form an activated tRNA-amino acid molecule. The binding of ATP gives energy to the molecule which is used later on in the energy intensive elongation phase of translation.
The ribosome used in bacterial protein synthesis consists of a 50S and a 30S subunit, which are made up of protein and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). In other organisms the sizes of these subunits are slightly different, but there is always a large and a small subunit that play similar roles. A ribosome can simultaneously hold three tRNA molecules, one each in the aminoacyl (A), peptidyl (P), and exit (E) sites.
Initiation of translation involves the small ribosomal subunit binding to the 'start' codon on the mRNA, which indicates where the mRNA starts coding for the protein. This codon is most commonly an AUG, but alternative start codons are common in prokaryotes. In eukaryotes and archaea, the amino acid encoded by the start codon is methionine. In bacteria, the protein starts instead with the modified amino acid N-formyl methionine (f-Met). In f-Met, the amino group has been blocked by a formyl group to form an amide, so this amino group cannot form a peptide bond –. This is not a problem because the f-Met it at the amino terminus of the protein. In prokaryotes the binding of the small subunit to the correct place on the mRNA is facilitated by base pairing to a series of bases known as the Shine-Dalgarno sequence, located 8-13 nucleotides before the start site.
The initiator tRNA, carrying Met or f-Met, base pairs to the start codon and sits in the P site of the ribosome. The large subunit then forms a complex with the small and elongation proceeds. A new activated tRNA enters the A site of the ribosome and base pairs with the mRNA. The enzyme peptidyl transferase forms a peptide bond between the adjacent amino acids. As this happens, the amino acid on the P site leaves its tRNA and joins the tRNA at the A site. The ribosome them moves in relation to the mRNA shifting the tRNA at the A site on to the P whilst releasing the empty tRNA, this process is known as translocation.
This procedure repeats until the ribosome encounters one of three possible stop codons, where termination occurs. This stalls protein growth, and release factors, proteins which mimic tRNA, enter the A site and release the protein in to the cytoplasm.
Synthesis of proteins can take place extremely quickly. This is aided by multiple ribosomes being able to attach themselves to one mRNA chain, thus allowing multiple proteins to be constructed at once. An mRNA chain with multiple ribosomes is called a polysome. Also, as prokaryotes have no nucleus, an mRNA can be translated while it is still being transcribed. This is not possible in eukaryotes as translation occurs in the cytoplasm, whereas transcription occurs in the nucleus. (From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
Distances are preserved under a translation, and so shapes and sizes remain the same.
