STUDY ON THE REASONS FOR LOW-QUALITY TRANSLATIONS BY RUSSIAN LANGUAGE STUDENTS

Abstract

Amid deepening relations between China and Russia, there is a critical demand for high-caliber bilingual specialists capable of mediating cross-disciplinary discourse across bilateral engagement domains. Applied translation involves processing texts spanning political, economic, and technological domains, requiring rigorous fidelity in information transfer to fulfill both readers’ needs and broader socio-national imperatives. In routine translation teaching and translation practices, Chinese and Russian languages have significant differences in grammar, pragmatics and expression, which lead to various problems for Russian language students. Through the analysis of translation errors and strategic recommendations, this study aims to optimize the mechanism for cultivating elite bilingual translators. Such enhancement meets the requirements of international exchanges between China and Russia, enabling student translators to better serve communication and cooperation in the future.
