The research was intended to identify the differences between translating and interpreting process, in order to explain the similarities of translating and interpreting process, and describing how the process between translating and interpreting process. There were two main theories adopted in this study. The theory of translation by Nida (1974) and interpreting theory by Pohhacker (2004). Nida’s and Pohhcaker’s theories were used to find out the answer of problem in this study. They were also some supporting theories concerning the translation and interpreting. “Meaning Based Translation” by Larson (1998) and some other theory were used along discuss about the differences and similarities of translating process and interpreting process in this study.

Full textAbstract:
Over the centuries, interaction between people of different linguistic backgrounds has thriven on the process of translating and interpreting. Wherever people have lived, these language-based activities have continued to promote communication among them, the barrier which the multiplicity of language has caused notwithstanding. This paper takes a look at translating and interpreting within the context of their origin, status, audience, modus operandi, etc. Whereas translating involves the process of writing on paper and is based on a given text, interpreting takes place orally and is not based on any written text. Whereas translating allows for the documentation and preservation of material in a written form for future readers, interpreting takes place on the spot. Whereas translating calls for an audience of readers, interpreting calls for an audience of listeners. The paper argues that though approached differently, the overall aim of translating and interpreting is to build a linguistic bridge among people and nations; to reduce the communication gap among them. It concludes that in spite of the operational variations their singular aim has always been semantics – the search for meaning between different linguistic parties in different settings. The psycholinguistic model serves as methodology.

Interlingual and intercultural communication in the form of oral and written translation is as old as mankind. Only in the past 40 years has it achieved recognition as a profession on an international scale: the Fédéeration Internationale dee Traduoteurs (FIT), which today embraces 49 national associations, was founded in 1953; the Association Internationale des Interprètes de Conférence (AIIC) came into being in the same year. Many countries began to offer both academic training and degrees to future professionals in the field; the Institute for Translator and Interpreter Training at the University of Vienna, for instance, celebrated its 40th anniversary a few years ago (cf., Festschrift 1983).

Full textAbstract:
This article analyzes evidence of translating and interpreting activities (indiscriminately referred to as yi (譯), which also denotes translators or interpreters in classical Chinese) in first-century China between the Latter Han (25–220 AD) Chinese administration and non-Han Chinese minority tribes along the then Southwestern frontier (modern Yunnan and Sichuan provinces). The importance of this archival record to the historical study of translation and interpreting is two-fold. First, it contains crucial details pertinent to translating and interpreting activities in China in antiquity. Second, it documents concepts of yi synchronically, as perceived by three main participants in the interpreting events: the emperor, the frontier inspector, and the frontier clerk cum interpreter. The presentation of what they actually wrote, said, and did in the first-century interpreting setting in China, with close reference to standard histories, objectively depicts the meanings of yi as perceived by these figures at the time.

This paper reflects on semi-professional translating and interpreting as a hobby. It is based on an autobiographical case study of translating and interpreting from Germanic languages into Finnish for the national and regional Icelandic horse riding associations. The translatorial actions are discussed within the framework of the Functionalist Translation Theory. The relation between the source text and the target text, the central role of the analysis of the function of the target text, the target text as a product of the translation process, and the role of the cultural and socio-cultural contexts in the translation process are discussed through examples. The interpreting of riding lessons is especially demanding, since it is a holistic and complex action situation which requires both interpretation and riding expertise from the interpreter. It is suggested that this kind of a special setting is worth further research.

There are several errors that often occur in translating and interpreting a text; the first is that there are still many translators who make mistakes that they consider normal, but have a big impact on the results of the translation which are not in accordance with the intent of the source language, namely forgetting that there is a culture that develops in writing, the second translator is still translating a text word by word, the three translators forgot the communication norms that developed in the target language. The data were collected through finding relevant reference Materials for a literature review include electronic books, journals, articles, and other sources of information. The literature review, as a tool for data collection, entails activities such as identifying, documenting, comprehension, implying, and transmitting data. Data collection is, throughout fact, how the literature review process is carried out, This paper used a literature review approach. To define the study of the notion of translation and interpretation that takes into account the target language's cultural features while keeping communicative norms in mind and produces meaning-based translation.

This article analyzes the strategies that serve to facilitate the work of the translator in the process of simultaneous translation. Most of the simultaneous translation researchers understand the strategy as a necessary skill or certain skills of the conference interpreter in processing the message when translating from the source language to the target language. In simultaneous translation, the interpreter uses several strategies at the same time. The decision is usually made on a case-by-case basis. It was also suggested that linguistic and extralinguistic factors influence this situation.

Abstract Non-governmental organisations hold an important place in today’s globalised society. After presenting an overview of previous research on Translation and Interpreting Studies on language mediation in NGOs, this introduction to the special issue argues that more research into NGOs’ translation and interpreting practices and policies is required to better understand these organisations and their influence on global society. The introduction engages with what NGO practitioners and professional translators have said on current challenges in translating and interpreting in the context of NGOs, and what this implies for future research and training in Translation and Interpreting Studies. Lastly, it reflects on the use of interdisciplinary approaches to understanding NGOs as global organisations and discusses the contribution that Translation and Interpreting Studies could make to other disciplines that aim to gain new insights on these organisations.

Full textAbstract:
Simultaneous interpreting is a complex task where the interpreter is routinely involved in comprehending, translating and producing language at the same time. This study assessed two components that are likely to be major sources of complexity in SI: The simultaneity of comprehension and production, and transformation of the input. Furthermore, within the transformation component, we tried to separate reformulation from language-switching. We compared repeating sentences (shadowing), reformulating sentences in the same language (paraphrasing), and translating sentences (interpreting) of auditorily presented sentences, in a simultaneous and a delayed condition. Output performance and ear–voice span suggest that both the simultaneity of comprehension and production and the transformation component affect performance but that especially the combination of these components results in a marked drop in performance. General lower recall following a simultaneous condition than after a delayed condition suggests that articulation of speech may interfere with memory in SI.

Abstract This paper aims to expand the boundaries of public service interpreting and translation (PSIT) and map the still widely unexplored territory of translating and interpreting in ecclesiastical settings. The starting point is the consideration that 21st-century societies are shaped by cross-cultural contact and interaction because of migration flows. Consequently, parishes are culturally and linguistically diverse. In such a context, translation and interpreting services are of utmost importance to ensure the integration of parishioners and preachers in the religious community. I intend to explore some of the realities, needs, and challenges posed by interpreting in ecclesiastical settings in Spain. A mainly qualitative methodology based on discourse analysis is used. Data come from empirical studies on related topics, an open questionnaire, and observation. The study touches on issues relating to the specific communication needs and audience expectations in religious settings, the context dependency of ecclesiastical translation and interpreting, and the interpreter’s role(s) of the interpreter in the religious environment.

The current article presents an example of a consecutive interpreting activity, which draws on the concept of autonomy in language learning. With regard to the "applied" component of translation studies, as formulated by Holmes (1988), the authors intend to demonstrate the need for enhancingforeign language competence in translator education, accentuating its role in the conceptualization of the discipline. Considering the context of this type of education, which is offered frequently to undergraduate students, the authors posit the need to concomitantly develop the command of a foreign language. They propose to compensate teaching practices derived from translation studies with the use of foreign language methodology for developing translating and interpreting skills.

In our work, we were examining the quality of the translation of Bulgakov’s Master and Margarita into Serbian language. We did it selectively, by using comparative analysis, on certain examples from this novel. Our opinion was that, while translating, an original code as a result of translating process had to be kept, i.e., potential material errors should be avoided. We agreed that a translator, apart from knowing original and target languages, has to be competent for textual analysis of the original, literature competence for interpreting of artistic texts, as well as being familiar with non-linguistic situation to which it is directed in the original. Wider knowledge of Bulgakov’s work helped the translators in successful pre-coding and stylistic compensation in examined cases. While analyzing two translations of Bulgakov’s novel (by Milan Čolic and Zlata Kocić), we indicated where the translators failed to avoid material errors, but also where they managed to accomplish creative type of translating.

A review of the challenges faced by professional translators both in Asia Pacific and worldwide. Translating is a key service in the knowledge economy, an enabler that uses and relies on the new technology of information and communication. But we know that translation and interpreting are processes that can often be by-passed by those who are bi- or multilingually competent. Indeed, if translation and interpreting were always needed, and always used, the sheer cost of global communication in money and time would act as a serious brake on growth.

The article deals with the problem of commenting and interpreting in M.A. Salye’s translations of the classical Uzbek literature work “Babur-nameh”. It also gives examples of translations of realities, terms, ethnonyms, which are presented in the work. When translating a monument of Uzbek fiction, problems related to foreignlanguage interpretation and commenting of nationally colored lexicon inevitably arise, which results in multiple meanings of lexical units of the original. Translation of the Babur-nameh fiction text will help to preserve the collective memory, within which memories are distributed among representatives of ethnic, national, social and professional groups. However, in this case, the main task of the translator remains to preserve the form, content and aesthetic impact of the original text.

Unlike in the early days of interpreter training, most student interpreters nowadays are still in the process of acquiring their target language(s), which raises questions as to which skills — linguistic as well as non-linguistic — may be required at the outset of interpreter training. This study focuses on individual difference variables and how these relate to interpreting students’ performance. It aims to investigate the ways in which the profiles of translation and interpreting students differ by obtaining information regarding their self-perceived communication competence, self-perception of language skills, anxiety levels and integrative motivation. These profiles are then related to the students’ sight translation performances, arguably a hybrid activity between translating and interpreting that is as cognitively demanding as simultaneous and consecutive interpreting. The students’ performances were assessed by a ‘blind judge’ along two parameters: (1) overall interpreting performance and (2) fluency. The results suggest that the two groups indeed differ significantly with regard to some of the individual difference variables. However, no significant correlations between these variables and students’ sight translation performance were found.

Abstract In this article, three different cultural and socio-political systems, those of China, Spain, and Russia, are compared in terms of how translation and interpreting are viewed. The principal aim is to propose a tentative model for conducting a synchronic comparative translation and interpreting research study across several regions. Two types of organization have been studied – embassies/consulates and translation bureaus. First, these types of organization routinely commission, use, and assess translations. Second, such organizations are likely to be found in the majority of countries in today’s world (hence, the number of countries to be compared could be increased). The first type, embassies/consulates, provides an ‘external’ view of translation, that is, the view of consumers of translation. The second type, translation agencies, on the other hand, furnishes examples of the ‘internal’ view of translation producers. First, the official requirements for the submission of documents in foreign languages as described on the sites of embassies and consulates are examined. The research questions include: What are the requirements for translating documents in foreign languages? Whose translations are recognized as legitimate? What are the quality assurance mechanisms for the translations? Then the requirements applicants for a job in a translation agency have to fulfill in the three countries are examined. The analysis focused on how translation is perceived and assessed. What is required from translators/interpreters helps us to gauge the status of translation and its level of professionalization in a particular society, while comparing three different societies allows us to compare the degree of professionalization of translation in different countries.

Full textAbstract:
Translating poetry is an exercise that stimulates both the cognitive and the emotional potentialities of students. Poetic texts are the essence of what poets thought and are therefore more difficult to decipher given the minimal linguistic input. The present study is the result of the work with two groups of students who had classes online during the coronavirus pandemic. Facebook as an accessible social media platform proved to be a great hub for launching the challenge of translating poetry and having students post their versions of translations. Their work was thus exposed to the assessment and appreciation of their fellow students who became thus part of a translating community. The poems chosen for this exercise in translation were selected from Michael Swan’s volume tiger dreams/ vise cu tigri POEMS/ POEME. The bilingual edition appeared at Niculescu Publishing House Romania and served as a consistent basis for the translation practice with the students from the “Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University of Iași who were specializing in Applied Linguistics - Translation and Interpreting. The resulting versions of the texts prove that language in poetry is pulsating with meaning anchored in the reality of the author’s imagination and in the translators’ efforts to mediate that reality and make it accessible to the contemporary public.

Full textAbstract:
This research aims to investigate the teacher's written corrective feedback toward the students’ translation improvement. It is focused on the student's translation on lexical and grammatical mistakes in translating the source text into the target text. Translation is an activity that aims to facilitate the communication process by interpreting the information received in one language into another language. However, the mistakes while translating cannot be avoid by the translator or the students. The students are commonly done mistakes lexically and grammatically. To overcome the mistakes, the teacher will be a facilitator in correcting the student's translation. Implementing of written corrective feedback is provided teacher to correcting the student's mistakes by writing their comments, correction of errors, etc on the student's writing translation. Based on the analysis, the result indicates that the students make mistakes in translating, the students are most commonly made some mistakes in lexical and grammatical errors.

This article ventures into the intricate world of cognitive processes underlying translation and interpreting. It presents a meticulous examination of the complex mental processes and cognitive strategies that translators and interpreters employ in their professional practices. Central to this exploration is the integration of theoretical models with empirical research findings, a synthesis that offers a profound understanding of the cognitive underpinnings shaping the practice of translating and interpreting. This comprehensive study scrutinizes various established cognitive models, analyzing how they elucidate the cognitive activities involved in language mediation. Furthermore, it delves into the application of these models to real-world scenarios, assessing their practicality and relevance in the dynamic field of translation and interpreting. By bridging the theoretical with the practical, the article sheds light on how cognitive models not only inform academic discourse but also have tangible applications in enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of translation and interpreting tasks. This investigation thereby contributes significantly to the field by offering insights that have the potential to revolutionize practices and training in translation and interpreting, making it a pivotal resource for professionals, academicians, and students alike.

We may assume that there is a relationship between the various ways in which literary texts can be interpreted, and the strategies that can be applied in their translation. Inevitably, translation strategies only pay attention to a limited number of aspects of the original text. It is, indeed, impossible to preserve all the aspects of a literary text in translation - the whole contents, the exact form, the rhythm, metaphors, puns and so on. This implies that the translator always has to choose so as to keep the features he considers most important, while giving up others. Since translation is a special kind of interpreting and reading, reading and translation strategies are bound to be interrelated. This paper deals with the influence of translating on the reading competence (and vice versa) and shows that when one is translating a text, one becomes more aware of the different ways in which it can be read and interpreted, and this, in turn, makes the translator more conscious of the choices (s)he can make. It is possible, then, to establish a 'hierarchy of priorities' in which the translator can take translation decisions more deliberately. I became aware of this influence of translating on reading attitude when I was leading a translation project at the University of Groningen, in which a group of students translated a number of poems of the Spanish poets Antonio Colinas and Julio Llamazares into Dutch. It appeared that during the classes, while we discussed the first Dutch versions of the poems, the students became gradually aware of a number of features they had not realized before, such as the intentional ambiguity of Colinas' word order, the use and significant position of certain key words, the musical qualities of the poems and the etymology of certain terms. This changing attitude brought about a number of modifications in our translations: the source texts were followed with more precision, importance was given to the preservation of various interpretations and the identification of key terms, the etymology of words was maintained wherever possible, the students tried to keep rhythm and musical effects and became sensitive to word order. This experience shows us that translation can have a useful place in the teaching of foreign languages, in that it sharpens the reading attitude, stimulates the analyzing and interpreting competences, and makes students more aware of the various choices they have when translating, and of the consequences these bring about.

While most scholars stress that translation and interpreting essentially fulfil the same function, many-especially interpreters-consider that the two are incompatible professions. In a sense, translators deal with written language and have time to polish their work whereas interpreters deal with oral language and have no time to refine their output. Any supplementary knowledge, for example, terminological or world language, can be acquired during written translation but has to be acquired prior to interpreting. A number of experimental studies were conducted by psycholinguists such as Treisman, Oleron, Goldman-Eisler and Gerver (1976). Their primary interest was the effect on performance of variables such as source language, speed of delivery, ear-voice span, noise, pauses, false starts etc. Later advances during the 1970’s and early 1980’s concentrated on the theoretical aspects and culminated in the so-called théorie du sens. This paper tackles competence in English-Arabic translation and interpreting while highlighting similarities and differences at the textural and performance levels. It sets out by discussing the requirements of quality, audience reception, fluency and quantitative aspects of style such as output ratio and redundancy. A focal point of interest is performance constraints in simultaneous interpretation which include, among other things, personal and logistical factors, lack of a holistic approach, time lag, SL deficiencies, lexico-grammatical asymmetry as well as cultural and rhetorical divergence (including phatic communion). The study concludes with an overview of the compensation strategies employed by interpreters such as intonational clues, queuing, segmentation, approximation, syntactic adjustment, compression and ellipsis.

Abstract Police interview interpreting is a complex task, as interpreters make difficult choices under pressure and time constraints. The main dilemma of the interpreter is whether to remain faithful to the original text, with the risk of rendering non-idiomatic translations, or to give preference to more idiomatic versions that may entail an addition or an omission from the original text. This article presents an analysis of Spanish-English bilingual police interviews in California. The analysis is based on the discrepancies found between an interpreter present in the interrogation and a control interpreter who translates the whole interview post-hoc. This is an original methodology that can be used for future research in this and other contexts. The results show different types of inaccuracies in the interpretation, which can be attributed to contextual pressures and overall challenges of interpreting and to challenges related to typological differences between the two languages involved.

The article is devoted to defining the peculiarities and focus of translating English neologisms in the software engineering terminology. As part of the study the role of vocabulary is explored, the features of neologism derivations are classified; the main methods of their interpreting into Russian are examined, the ways of neologism word-building in the software engineering terminology are identified and the most frequent interlingual transformations used in conveying their meaning into Russian are determined. Results of the study reveal that the majority of neologisms are formed predominantly by stem-composition and affixation and the most common method of translating neologisms in the software engineering terminology is the loan-translation, transcription and translation method, grammatical substitutions and descriptive translation.

The COVID-19 pandemic undoubtedly had a significant influence on the translating and interpreting industry. Even while certain tendencies are now apparent, it will take some time to fully understand how profound and transformative the years of pandemic measures and social isolation were. This paper summarises findings from two surveys conducted among translators and interpreters in Slovakia. The first was conducted during the first wave of the pandemic and focused on the immediate economic and psychological implications of the first lockdown measures on the translation community. Apart from measuring the changes in demand for services, the share of cancelled assignments and general mood among professionals, we have also enquired about the demand for remote interpreting. The proportion of those who encountered offers for remote interpreting nearly doubled in the six weeks after the introduction of the first lockdown measures in Slovakia (an increase from 18.75% to 39.69%). The second source of data is a survey of rates which already captures how much remote interpreting penetrated the structure of interpreting service one year after the onset of the pandemic. Based on our findings, the average number of remote interpreting days in 2021 was 67.53% of the total number of interpreting days. This rapid onset of remote interpreting recovered demand for interpreting services as the volume of work began to catch up with pre-pandemic levels, but also brought a greater psychological burden and stress resulting from the different nature of remote interpretation.

Abstract The aim of this investigation is a comparative description of translation and interpretation in terms of modern communication technology, translation, and discourse studies. Each type of translation work, either oral or written, has its own specific requirements for the translator and the final result of his work - translation. A description of both types of translation cannot suffice without taking into account pragmatics, psycholinguistics, and the pragmatic scope of each text. A more important final result is the right linguistic expression in compliance with the grammatical, semantic, and stylistic rules of the target language. Special attention should be paid to extralinguistic factors - certain communicative situations that create special conditions for interpreting, including the place, time, recipients, and environment (interfering noise). The article describes different types of interpreting and draws the reader’s attention to the controversial question of the interpreter’s natural ability and the possibility of achieving excellence in interpreting through the intensive practising of skills simultaneously with a profound knowledge of certain languages and the translator or interpreter’s general educational development.Translation usually gives the translator more time for focusing and considering the choice of the necessary lexico-grammatical and stylistic elements for a certain text. Interpretation requires an immediate reaction from the interpreter, who is in a constant state of stress and works under pressure. The translator of a written text is not only the person who renders the original text, but he is also the creator of a new written version of the text that can be read and, discussed, with its own mistakes in it. Interpreting is much more neutral and invisible to the addressee; the main thing here is the pragmatic transfer of the original information.For the research the first-hand experience of teaching students in a class of translating and interpreting, with the presentation of examples in Czech and Ukrainian, is used.The author comes to the conclusion that common features of interpretation and translation include the need for high language competence and the translator’s general erudition (excellent language skills, knowledge of features of the cultural background, a functional approach to linguistic means, and a developed aesthetic and cultural perception). But, considering that the requirements for performers of translation and interpretation are different, even in the scientific literature the assertion whether the professional specialist exists at all and can be a true professional in both translating and interpreting remains debatable.

The Mental Process in Simultaneous Interpreting
Simultaneous interpreting is one of the most difficult tasks. It requires great intellectual and psychological efforts. It also necessitates important skills, and a long translation experience, depending on good linguistic and extralinguistic competencies. Moreover, it is an intellectual and creative activity against nature as it combines both listening and speaking, requiring a mental process in order to establish a communication. This translating kind is the focal point of communication whenever nationalities differ and languages vary. Simultaneous interpreting, especially conference interpreting, is a complex process which is based on listening, understanding, analyzing and memorizing to convey the message in a few seconds, following integrated and continuous stages. Listening comes on the head of these phases, and it is the main link within the interpreting process. However, its concept overlaps with hearing and receiving. Accordingly, listening based on good hearing and intensive attention is considered the basis for ensuring a successful transfer. Therefore, good performance requires good listening.

Translating legal texts is considered as the most difficult translation task as it needs accurate and correct translation, and even minor errors can result in lawsuits and legal exposure. This paper aims at finding out the translation problems and formulating the strategies best applicable in translating legal texts from bahasa Indonesia into English. This is a descriptive study using a document analysis as the method. The data were 15 legal texts having been translated from bahasa Indonesia into English by semi-professional translators. In analysing the data, the document analysis was carried out by skimming, reading, and interpreting the translated legal texts. The results of data analysis reveal three general problems in translating legal texts done by the semi-professional translators, including finding the right equivalent, translator’s insufficient knowledge of English legal language and source text decoding. To overcome such problems, four strategies are proposed: (i) utilizing online resources, (ii) finding the proposition of the legal sentence, (iii) using a description technique, and (iv) employing functional approach to translation. It is concluded that translating legal texts requires translator’s good knowledge of applicable laws and language competence in both the source language and target language.

ABSTRAKPenerjemahan adalah suatu proses mengartikan suatu bahasa ke bahasa lain, baik secara lisan maupun tertulis, misalnya menerjemahkan dari Bahasa Mandarin ke Indonesia, atau menerjemahkan dari Indonesia ke Mandarin. Penerjemahan juga bisa diartikan sebagai kegiatan mengartikan suatu simbol ke bahasa lain, misalnya, jika lampu merah menyala, artinya kendaraan atau manusia yang melintas, harus berhenti. Didalam proses penerjemahan suatu teks atau dokumen, penerjemah harus menguasai kosakata yang diperlukan atau kata yang umum dipergunakan, misalnya jika menerjemahkan hal-hal yang berhubungan dengan bidang kesehatan, maka penerjemah harus menguasai istilah-istilah yang ada di dalamnya, termasuk nama-nama penyakit, alat-alat yang dipakai di dalam kedokteran , dan lain sebagainya. Sejalan dengan kemajuan teknologi informasi dan komunikasi,munculah mesin penerjemah seperti google translate, pleco, dan lain-lain, dan menerjemahkan menjadi lebih mudah. Melalui tugas penerjemahan yang dikerjakan oleh 38 mahasiswa, penulis menyadari bahwa banyak mahasiswa yang sangat bergantung dengan alat bantu penerjemah. Mahasiswa menggunakan alat bantu penerjemah untuk memperbaiki tatanan kata dan mengerjakan semua tugas penerjemahan, ada yang bahkan tidak mensortir hasil terjemahan, dengan kata lain mengambil mentah-mentah hasil terjemahan tersebut.Kata Kunci: Penerjemahan; bahasa Mandarin; mesin penerjemahABSTRACTTranslation is a process of interpreting a language into another language, either orally or in writing, for example translating from Mandarin to Indonesian, or translating from Indonesia to Mandarin. Translation can also be interpreted as the activity of interpreting a symbol into another language, for example, if a red light is on, it means that a passing vehicle or human must stop. In the process of translating a text or document, the translator must master the necessary vocabulary or words that are commonly used, for example if translating matters related to the health sector, the translator must master the terms in it, including names of diseases, tools used in medicine, and so on. In line with advances in information and communication technology, machine translators such as google translate, pleco, and others have emerged, and translating has become easier. Through translation assignments carried out by 38 students, the authors realized that many students were very dependent on translator aids. Students use translator tools to improve word order and do all translation assignments, some do not even sort the translation results, in other words take the translation results raw.Keywords: translation; Mandarin; translator engines

In translating Japanese compound sentences, generally, students still have difficulty in interpreting the meaning of the -te verb which functioned as a conjunction (-te conjunction) in compound sentences. Semantically, the -te verb form has some meanings that can be distinguished based on the context of the sentence. Inaccuracy in determining the meaning of the -te conjunction can affect the results of translating compound sentences. In this research, the forms of -te conjunction translation errors which causes the error in translating compound sentence will be elaborated. Data in this research taken from the translation of 'Haha no Tanjobi', which is one of the subtitles in the Rudolf Beethoven biography book titled Beetoben Kodomo Denki Zenshuu, translated by semester VI students of the Japanese Language Program, Vocational College, UGM. From the analysis, the causes of errors in translating conjunctions can be concluded as follows: learners do not understand the classification of the -te conjunctions’ meaning, lack of mastery of Japanese and Indonesian compound sentence structures, and have not been able to understand the message/ meaning of each clause forming compound sentences in Japanese.

The presentation refers to the entire area of translating legal terminology, in particular to the translation of EU law-related texts that are especially vital for translating the acquis communautaire. This area of translation (and interpreting) services has been developing rapidly. The language used in documents is specialist and, at the same time, specific, due to the terminology used. Both the translator and the interpreter face the responsibility and the obligation to observe and apply translation strategies, consistently selected and considering the already existing and valid names, terms, concepts, definitions etc., by means of such available sources of information as dictionaries, encyclopedias, lexicons or special glossaries. Problems that translators and interpreters may encounter focus, to a large extent, on (un)translatability of certain terms, ambiguity of EU-speak or textual coherence, or the absence of it, which results from unclear, vague or ambiguous style of the original. On the other hand, the challenge for the translator/interpreter is constant care of the quality of the text created in Polish, which substantially affects the standard level and quality of Polish that we use everyday. Quality is the concept in translation and interpreting closely related with successful performance and communication (with all its aspects). The attempt at quality description in this context, apart from subjective impressions resulting from our understanding of the importance of features that good - competent - translation and effective communication should have, cannot be devoid of focusing on three principal factors, i.e., the translator/interpreter (as the text author/producer), translation/interpreting process and product, which is the result of this process and, finally, involvement (and competence) on the part of the translator/interpreter. All the above aspects pose a real challenge for the translator/interpreter focusing on legal terminology.
Selected aspects of the aforementioned issues shall be verified in a case study conducted on trainee interpreters.

Principally, the objective of this research is to find out the result of achievement of student’s speaking skill through the performance of translation and interpreting studies. In view of that, this research constitutes one of teacher’s best endeavors to recognize the attainment of student’s speaking skill as the prerequisite for them to get a highly qualified competency for their carrier in the future. Hence, the objective of education for which the students pursue in the university can be accordingly achieved. The achievement of students speaking skill in the society is very important due to the fact that many kinds of world-class business opportunities need a qualification of competency-based speaking skill. The steps of improving the students speaking skill through translating and interpreting study are namely understanding linguistics, socio linguistics and psycho-linguistics and vocabulary as well.
