INTRODUCTION In the modern world, during the period of globalization, there is an active exchange of experience and knowledge in the field of medicine. Interest in the field of medical translation is growing every day, making it one of the most in demand. The requirements for a translator who deals with this type of work are quite high. It should be noted that it is important not only to have translation skills, but also to have sufficient background scientific knowledge in medicine 2. MAIN PART Medicine is actively integrated not only into the scientific field, but also into everyday life. Examples are popular science articles aimed at ordinary people. Abroad and in our country, the demand for popular science magazines about health is very high, which is why many publishing houses are focused on the use and translation of various articles. Medical discoveries and technologies occupy a very important place in the modern world. The common medical Latin language was replaced by English. But it should be noted that knowledge of common English will not be enough for a translator. He also needs to know Greek-Latin international terminology, since these terms are often used in medical texts, accounting for approximately 30% of the total [5. P.3]. Popular science texts are journalistic articles on scientific topics in popular periodicals and magazines intended for a wide audience. For example, the text by Jeff Strong, Michael O. Flanagan “ADD and ADHD for Dummies”, which is devoted to the study of a common neuropsychiatric disease - attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), “CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians”, “Free Medical Journals” " Modern scientific style in the field of medicine uses various genres and types of texts: - textbook (The American Medical Association Encyclopedia of Medicine [Book] - reference book (BMA Illustrated Medical Dictionary), - Course paper Article. For example, “Ultrafast Lasers and Materials Photonics” is an article that talks about the latest advances in the use of ultrafast lasers, fiber lasers, etc. When translating medical terms, the following translation methods are used: searching for dictionary matches, transcribing, transliteration, tracing, descriptive translation, contextual replacement, specification, generalization, and lexical additions. The translated text can contain both non-equivalent and equivalent units. Non-equivalent units: disease - disease, renal - kidney. Equivalent units: contraction - reduction, acquisition, restriction; treat - to treat; carry out a course of treatment; consider, discuss; multipurpose application - multilateral application. About 40% of all terms have dictionary matches. In the case when there are many equivalent units, it should be borne in mind that dictionaries contain several correspondences to one terminological unit, but there can only be one meaning of a specific word or phrase in the original text. Definition of dictionary correspondences is the most common type of translation of terminological units. Constant correspondences are the most stable way to translate units of the source language (original language). It is used in all, or almost all, cases where they appear in the original. Equivalent units of language are basically known as units of language whose content is independent of context. As a constant equivalent unit, it is translated and has a correspondence that most fully reproduces its meaning. Constant correspondences are found mainly in terms, proper names and titles, geographical names, as well as in some words and phrases that are used in everyday speech. For example: California, San Francisco, English Uzbek www.samdchti.uz 40 RAQAMLI TEXNOLOGIYALAR DAVRIDA TARJIMASHUNOSLIK VA LINGVISTIKA: ZAMONAVIY YONDASHUVLAR TADQIQI” nomli ilmiy maqolalar to‘plami May – 2024 Neuropsychiatrist Nevropsixiatr coronary arteries yurak qon tomirlari laboratory test laboratoriya sinovi symptom alomat,tashqi belgi clinical experience klinik tajriba medical histoey tibbiyot tarixi Transcription is considered a method of translation when the sound form of an English word is transmitted by the letters of the target language: English Uzbek dentr
