IN SEARCH OF TERM CONFORMITY WHEN TRANSLATING MILITARY PROFESSIONAL VOCABULARY

Abstract

The article discusses the features of the use of military professional vocabulary and the difficulties which an interpreter has to overcome in search of term conformity when translating from the Arabic language into Russian. This problem has a scientific and practical significance because modern Arab media actively use military professional vocabulary. The article raises political issues military abbreviations and acronyms. To give their correct interpretation is quite a challenge because of a great variety of dialects and professional slang words. Though the Arabic language is recognized as official among all Arab states, the military terminologies in mass media of the Arab states are verbalized differently which may cause misunderstanding and distortion of information. The author concludes that the search for matches in the translation of military professionalism is greatly complicated by the presence of many Arabic dialects, the emergence of new terminological phrases and acronyms through borrowings from other languages, especially English. Printed editions are synonymous with military terms to make them easier for ordinary public to understand, leading to new military lexical means.
