Everything you ever want to know about translation.

Source Text

In translation, a source text (ST) is a text written in a given source language which is to be, or has been, translated into another language. According to Jeremy Munday’s definition of translation, “the process of translation between two different written languages involves the changing of an original written text (the source text or ST) in the original verbal language (the source language or SL) into a written text (the target text or TT) in a different verbal language (the target language or TL)”. The terms ‘source text’ and ‘target text’ are preferred over ‘original’ and ‘translation’ because they do not have the same positive vs. negative value judgment.
