Problems of Translation from Turkish to Arabic for Turkish Students: A Contrastive Study

Abstract

The linguistic family of both Arabic and Turkish languages ​​varies, which represents a challenge for translators and learners from Turkey, especially beginners. The researcher has noticed several common translation errors resulting from this variation among undergraduate students in theology faculty. To describe and limit these problems, this study starts from examining a group of translations by Turkish students in theology faculty, and extrapolating them, relying on the contrastive analysis and error analysis.
