“Lexical transformation in the translation process”- from theory to practice

Workplace-based training on the topic “Lexical transformations in the translation process” was organized at the Gamma training centre for students of groups LAk-1-24 and LAk-2-24 at the department of intercultural communication and linguistics, institute of philology, B. Osmonov Jalal-Abad state university. The training session was conducted by Kenzhebu Osmonova, a lecturer at the department.

During the practical session, students explored the key features of lexical transformations used in translation. Through practical examples, they examined various translation techniques, including contextual meaning transfer, lexical substitution, concretization, generalization, and other strategies essential for achieving accuracy and adequacy in translation.

The primary objective of the training was to develop students’ ability to apply theoretical knowledge in real professional contexts, enhance their translation competence, and strengthen their practical skills.

This practice-oriented approach to education bridges the gap between academic learning and professional practice, promotes the development of professional thinking, and prepares future translators to meet the demands of an increasingly competitive labour market.
