The Text

Оглавление

Before you can translate you need to have something to translate. The Bible was written before there were typewriters or printing presses and so it was written by hand, and then copied by hand. When documents are copied by hand, there are always some errors that creep in (See chapter 2). So we will have to select a text to copy. Modern versions generally choose between a text built according to principles of modern textual criticism or the text used by the King James Version (KJV).

Receptor Language - the language into which a document is being translated. For example, when translating the New Testament from Greek into English, English is the receptor language. Source Language - the language from which a document is being translated. For example, when translating the New Testament from Greek into English the source language is Greek.
