A Model for Assessing Translation Quality
House, Juliane
Meta, 22, 2, 103-109, Jun 77
The essence of translation lies in the preservation of semantic, pragmatic and textual meaning across two languages. The model proposed considers the following: situational dimensions; dimensional errors; the distinction between overt and covert translation; application of cultural filters; social role relationships; and the purpose for the translation.
