In April 2016 Manchester eScholar was replaced by the University of Manchester’s new Research Information Management System, Pure. In the autumn the University’s research outputs will be available to search and browse via a new Research Portal. Until then the University’s full publication record can be accessed via a temporary portal and the old eScholar content is available to search and browse via this archive.

Abstract

This book first introduces readers to the typical contexts in which scientific and technical translators work and shows how corpus resources can be used for terminological and phraseological research. It then analyses a range of technical and scientific genres and examines typical translation practices, with chapters dedicated to technical instructions, data sheets and brochures, patents, scientific research articles and abstracts, popular science press releases and news reports.
