THE INFLUENCE OF MULTILINGUAL MASTERY ON THE QUALITY OF TRANSLATION

Аннотация

This thesis examines the influence of multilingual mastery – specifically, the command of both English and Russian – on translation quality. By synthesizing relevant literature, exploring theoretical frameworks, and proposing a research methodology, this study investigates how linguistic proficiency and cultural competence affect the translation process. The analysis considers both the cognitive and affective dimensions of language mastery, emphasizing that a deep understanding of linguistic nuances and cultural contexts leads to translations that are not only accurate but also contextually and stylistically appropriate. Implications for translation pedagogy and professional practice are discussed, underscoring the importance of advanced language skills for achieving high-quality translations.
