Abstract

This article examines the key principles and methods involved in the translation of specialized terminology in scientific and technical texts. It emphasizes that terminological translation requires not only linguistic competence but also a deep understanding of the underlying concepts. The study highlights the importance of conceptual equivalence, terminological accuracy, and communicative functionality as fundamental principles guiding the translation process. It also discusses various translation methods such as literal translation, calque, borrowing, transposition, and descriptive translation, which are applied depending on the context and the availability of equivalents in the target language. Particular attention is given to challenges such as terminological polysemy, the lack of direct equivalents, and the continuous evolution of scientific terminology.
