Abstract

Translation is not merely a language, but also a cultural transfer, which means rendering cultural specific aspects of a source text in a target culture is not easy. The scenes-and-frames theory is a good starting point that shows the translator which cultural references will be understood by the target recipient and which require further explanation from the translator.
