  • Why be a Professional Translator  By : Neil 1 Payne
    Apart from being a critically acclaimed motion picture, ‘lost in translation’ is a phenomenon that translators the world over frequently encounter. To further discuss lost in translation, it is important to understand the meaning of the term lost in translation.

In the example above, the term completely lost its relevance in English even though the translation is perfect; essentially the term was lost in translation. It is important to note that the loss in translation occurred due to a difference in culture and not because the quality of the translation was not up to the mark.
