The introduction chapter introduces the approach which is focused on terminology as a key feature of specialized languages, or Language for Special Purposes. Chapter 2 introduces some basic issues concerning specialized translation, including the significance of subject fields, culture in specialized language, the linguistic scope of specialized language and lexical codification. Chapter 3 reevaluates a number of core concepts- terms, text, and translation. Chapter 4 and 5 focus on historical aspects of terminology and translation. The final chapter revisits some of the key issues, including the importance of translation in many aspects of our daily lives.
