Special Issue on

Translation Studies and English Interpreting

Translation Studies and English Interpreting is an interdisciplinary field that explores the theory, practice, and pedagogy of translating written texts and interpreting spoken communication between English and other languages. It examines linguistic, cultural, cognitive, and technological aspects of translation and interpreting, including strategies for accuracy, equivalence, and context adaptation. By integrating applied linguistics, cross-cultural communication, professional practice, and translation technologies, this field aims to enhance effective multilingual communication, support global interactions, and foster understanding across diverse cultural and social settings.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring Translation Studies and English Interpreting. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Literary translation
• Technical and scientific translation
• Legal and judicial translation
• Medical and healthcare translation

• Translation theory and research
• Cross-cultural communication studies
• Machine translation and translation technologies
