Cafe, the ou lait?: How shall we train technical communicators to translate?

Abstract

Despite global trade, technical communication training programs have largely ignored translation issues. Some technical translation specialists suggest a full course to remedy this, a fully caffeinated approach called `cafe'; others recommend fitting translation preparation into already existing courses, a lighter caffeine approach called `the'. Research studies were conducted to address translation problems and the cultural gaps between U.S.-based technical communicators and their audiences abroad.
