d’Angelis, Antonella, Estefanía Flores Acuña and Francisco Núñez-Román, eds. 2016. Insights in Translation for Specific Purposes. Special issue of Translation and Translanguaging in Multilingual Contexts 2 (1) 169 pp.

Abstract

This special edition includes the speeches presented in the 1st Virtual International Congress: Translation of Languages for Specific Purposes, held in March 2015. The first three papers are studies on the translation of texts that belong to the sphere of economy and finance (Serón-Ordóñez), science and technology (del Pino), chemistry and medicine (Gonzalo Claros). The articles by Núñez-Román and Flores Acuña relate to the instrumental sub-competence that should form part of the translation professional’s competence. In her article, Valero Garcés asks whether Translation and Interpreting in public services could be considered as translation for specific purposes. From the point of view of applied linguistics, Salguero-Lamillar analyses the notion of translation equivalence. Lastly, Ralarala investigates ‘transpreters’ voices’ and their translations of complainants’ narratives.
