Abstract

This article investigates translation as a cross-cultural communication act, moving beyond linguistic conversion. We analyze the challenges of achieving dynamic equivalence while preserving cultural context and authorial intent. The findings emphasize that successful translation requires deep textual understanding and the ability to negotiate meaning across differing worldviews.
