Abstract |
|
|
| The primary focus of this research is to explore the relationship between translation studies and mathematics, specifically examining the challenges, approaches, and consequences of translating mathematical ideas from one language to another. Employing a qualitative and descriptive methodology, this study addresses the issue of accurately conveying mathematical concepts without introducing any "foreign" implications, while also investigating the influence of culture on the translation process. The objective of this study is to provide a qualitative description of the various difficulties that translators encounter when dealing with both linguistic diversity and their own cultural backgrounds. Through this qualitative analysis, the study reveals how translators navigate language obstacles by utilizing intricate details that may otherwise go unnoticed. Mathematical language is highly specialized, and its meaning is contingent upon the specific context in which it is employed. As a result, the findings of this research underscore the significance of adopting an interdisciplinary approach that incorporates the analysis of mathematical language, the utilization of terminological databases, and the contextualization of mathematical concepts. These elements are crucial for achieving a more precise and accurate translation of mathematical ideas. The global implications for education, collaboration, and the democratization of mathematical knowledge are illuminated by the qualitative nature of this research, in addition to the abundance of linguistic diversity. By fostering interactive relationships among various languages, this would not only promote inclusivity within the global mathematics community but also facilitate a more comprehensive and interconnected approach.
