Dr. Nawal Mohammed Abuzwaid Alhasan
ABSTRACT:
The processes of translation and language are intricate phenomena that can overcome barriers in many diverse ways. More precisely, they are tools that can be employed to navigate, dismantle, and investigate a diverse range of barriers and facets of human communication and cognition. This study offers a thorough and detailed examination of translators’ difficulties when transferring text from one language to another. The examination explores the challenges of managing linguistic and cultural differences, specifically in accurately expressing idiomatic expressions and cultural references deeply embedded in the source language. Furthermore, it examines the role that technology, particularly artificial intelligence, plays in translation. It acknowledges the advantages and disadvantages of this technology in terms of its capacity to comprehend various human languages and the complexities of cultural expressions. Moreover, the study comprehensively examines the ethical problems relevant to translation. This is an additional point to the one previously mentioned. This emphasises the translator’s crucial role in preserving the original message’s essence while adapting the content to suit various cultural settings. This study aims to promote the acknowledgement of translation as an essential cultural and ethical undertaking. The study will notably emphasise the crucial role that proficient translators play in fostering cross-cultural comprehension and embracing diversity.
