Meaning-Based Translation: A Guide to Cross-Language Equivalence

by Mildred L. Larson

Meaning-Based Translation is designed for training beginning translators and organized chapter by chapter as drill material for the textbook Meaning-Based Translation. The textbook emphasizes the importance of a translation being accurate, clear and natural and the exercises give the student practice in achieving this goal. The exercises follow closely the content of the textbook since this is a drill manual for added practice. The textbook has some exercises as well, but the workbook provides additional practice from one basic source, thus giving students a wider variety of problems to solve during practice time. It also provides material that can be used as homework or as testing material.

Obra interesante que ofrece una reflexión profunda sobre los procesos de traducción. La autora presenta un enfoque que pone énfasis en el significado de los textos en lugar de adherirse estrictamente a las palabras, lo cual es una perspectiva fundamental para la traducción. Las ideas propuestas son relevantes y útiles para traductores y estudiantes interesados en profundizar en los aspectos semánticos del proceso de traducción.
