Abstract

The field of Translation Research is a discipline that involves an investigation into various aspects of translation including translation theory, translational practices, and the use of translation technology. This subject has a history dating back to earlier societies but it has experienced significant progress and growth in recent decades. This can be attributed to the increasing demand for translation services and advancements in technology. The present study provides a comprehensive overview of the debated topics in the field of translation studies.
