Summary:
Covering a number of European languages from Portuguese to Hungarian, this volume includes many new studies of translation patterns using parallel corpora focusing on particular linguistic features, as well as broader-ranging contributions on translation 'universals'. Chapter 1 sets the scene by tracing the origins of modern corpus-based studies to earlier developments in Linguistics.
