Abstract:

An Introductory Course in Translation Principles continues to provide crucial,
practical training for those preparing to translate the Bible or contribute to
Bible translation in other ways. The fourth edition of this classic textbook
is a leading voice in addressing the following developments in the Bible
translation world:

-The priority of oral communication and its value in drafting, testing, and
polishing draft translations.

-The availability of software and online resources specifically designed for
Bible translation; exercises and assignments include practice in the use of
these resources.

-The increase in Old Testament translation projects worldwide; more examples
and exercises from the Old Testament are included.

-The value of partnership and teamwork in translation projects, recognizing
the different gifts, skills, and roles of those involved, helping each team
member to serve effectively as a member of a team.

-The involvement of local churches and community in the translation process;
planning for local responsibility, ownership and sustainability as fully as
possible in each translation project.

-The importance of ongoing training for translators, including training
translators to train others and preparing capable translators to serve as
translation consultants in due time.

The materials are designed for the classroom but are also suitable for
self-study, for example, by those who are already qualified in biblical
languages and exegetical skills and are training as translation consultants. A
companion Teacherâ s Manual is also available.

Documents, references, and links to videos and other published works can be
found online at: publications.sil.org/bibletranslation_additionalmaterials.

Bible Translation: An Introductory Course in Translation Principles has
previously been translated in whole or in part into French, Hindi, Indonesian,
Kannada, Malagasy, Malayalam, Marathi, Oriya, Portuguese, Russian, Slovak,
Spanish, Swahili, Tamil, and Telugu.
