Abstract

Globalisation has always been an important aspect of translation. The term translation technically connotes the art of recomposing or reproducing a work from the source language (SL) into the target language (TL) without losing its original flavor whereas globalisation means transforming things from being local or regional into worldly, international or global. As an integral part of globalisation, translation has been mediating and bridging the distance between people, languages, and cultures of different countries. As a result of translation and globalisation, people have become more familiar with different linguistic communities and cultures. Translation has been a key factor in the development of world culture and world literature. In fact, in this age of globalisation, translation has become a necessity.
