Technical translation involves the translation of documents created by technical writers. This area encompasses subjects related to technology and texts that deal with the practical application of scientific and technological information. Technical translation requires the use of specialized terminology and a high level of subject knowledge and writing conventions. A word in a technical dictionary may have multiple meanings, and it is the translator's skill to select the most appropriate term in the target language for the given context. Technical Domain translations can only be performed by professional native translators with specialized knowledge in this field.
