Abstract
The main focus of the present article is the subtitling process. The author attempts to provide an answer to the following questions: What is it that sets subtitling apart from other forms of language transfer? Why is it that good translators do not necessarily make good subtitlers? What additional or alternative language skills must subtitlers have at their command?
