Specialized translators claim to possess a particular expertise. The author systematically presents the elements of this knowledge and illustrates them across different languages. Concept formation and language norms, terminology and specialized styles, word formation preferences, text type norms, and criteria for comprehensibility, as well as aspects of interculturality, must be considered and interconnected in the formulation of each specialized text or its translation. Through numerous example texts, the findings of specialized language research and translation studies are made fruitful for the translation process. This book is for anyone seeking a scientifically grounded and practice-oriented introduction to the translation of specialized texts, and it can also serve as a foundation for courses in specialized translation or for advanced learners of German as a foreign language.
