INTRODUCTION

In the process of studying in Faculty of English – University , I was

approached and equipped myself with the theories, the lessons of teachers on

grammar, and etc especially in the translation theories However, to avoid surprise after school, the school has created the conditions for final year students we have access to the fact, which combined with the theories we have learned to be aware objective for the problem revolves around the knowledge of future work

Intern period is the opportunity for us to have access to practice, apply the

theories they have learned in the school, promote the idea that in the learning process

is not performed During this time, we have access to the activities of the enterprise, as well as observable learning styles and working experience especially capture the reality of using English in business This is extremely useful and particularly important for the final year students, before we actually work in enterprises and organizations

Below is a detail timetable for my internship

(from to )

Week 1: the first day in company, I had a chance to greeting and making acquaintance

with employees in the company They were not strict as I thought They helped me to feel comfortable and receiving the best working environment Then, Miss……… who directly is in charge of me, introduced me to every staff in Marketing department

The second day, I started with reading some documents and emails to get used to When there were responding from customers, I would refer how to answer with the help of everyone

The third day, nothing special happened I just did as the second day but in processing

of learning, I stored up some new words

The forth day was a busy day with Marketing Department They had to develop new ideas on advertising It was hard for me to help I received some contracts to overview and tried to translate

Week 2: I continued with the task of translating contract: mostly business contracts I

needed lots of help in Goodge Translation because there were many terms I didn’t know or I translated incorrectly

I had an opportunity to practice sending easy mail to customers

There were some callings from oversea, but I just could stay by their side and listened

However, there was always isues in the part of contract translation

Sending and receieving emails wasn’t the big problem any more

in out door activities, events held by the company I could see how they worked in team and the way they helped the other They were very precious experience I had through this intern ship

CHAPTER II: CONTRACT TRANSLATION IN THE COMPANY

2.1 Translation theory

2.1.1 What is translation?

There are a lot of definitions of translation

According to Bell (1991), “translation is the expression in another language (or target language) of what has been expressed in another, source language, preserving semantic and stylistic equivalents”

From the point of view of Larson (1984), “translation is basically a change of form When we speak of the form of language, we are referring to the actually words, phrases, clauses, sentences, paragraphs…which are spoken or written In translation, the form of the source language is replaced by the form of the receptor (target) language

The American-Website Dictionary (1974) also defines that “translation consists

of changing from one state or form to another, to turn into one’ own or another’ language

Moreover, Catford (1965: 20) states that translation may be defined as the replacement of textual material in one language (SL) by equivalent textual material in another language (TL) Similar definition is also mentioned by Larson (1984: 3) He says that translation consists of translating the meaning of the source language into the receptor language This is done by going from the form of the first language to the form of a second language by way of semantic structure It is meaning which is being transferred and must be held constant Only the form change

Wilss said that “Translation is a procedure which leads from a written SL text

to an optimally equivalent TL text, and which requires the syntactic, semantic, stylistic, and text pragmatic comprehension by the translator of the original text.”

Often it is rendering meaning of signs, symbols (both verbal and non-verbal) by means of other signs, symbols in the same language or in other languages Common sense tells us that this ought to be simple, as one ought to be able to say something as well in one language as in another On the other hand, it may be seen as complicated, artificial and fraudulent, since by using another language, the language user may be pretending to be someone he/she is not Hence, working in translation has its own interests and its own excitement Since a translator works on a text, he/she is always trying to extent his/her knowledge and improve his/her means of expression, he/she is always pursuing facts and words, so a satisfactory translation is always possible, but a perfect or ideal translated version may never be obtained

To sum up, any authors brings students deep understandings about certain sides

of technical translation By reading carefully, translators can get a complete theory in this phenomenon In fact, most of them pay attention to common ways to have a good translation

2.1.2 Translation methods

Translation methods are ways of translating for the widest range of texts or text categories They provide a framework of principles, restricted rules and hints for translating texts and criticizing translations, a background for problem-solving

Newmark (1988) suggests 8 translation methods divided into two main groups called semantic translation and communicative translation Newmark put these methods in the form of a flattened V diagram:

Literal translation Free translation

Faithful translation Idiomatic translation

Semantic translation Communicative translation

2.1.2.1 Word-by-word translation

Word-by-word translation is interlinear translation in which words are translated

by their most common meanings, out of context The SL word order is preserved

2.1.2.2 Literal translation

In literal translation method, lexical words are again translated singly, out of context The SL grammatical constructions are converted to their nearest equivalent

2.1.2.3 Faithful translation

A faithful translation attempts to reproduce precise contextual meaning within

TL grammatical structures It transfers cultural words and preserves the grammatical and lexical abnormality

2.1.2.4 Semantic translation

Semantic translation is somehow similar to faithful translation However it takes more account of the aesthetic value of SL text It is more flexible, less dogmatic than faithful translation

Semantic translation admits the creative exception and makes some small concessions to the readership

2.1.2.5 Communicative translation

Communicative translation attempts to the exact contextual meaning of the original in such a way that both language and content are readily acceptable and comprehensible to the readership

2.1.2.6 Idiomatic translation
