Abstract
What is translation equivalence? “The equivalence of individual words in the original and in contexts suggests the possible closeness of not only the objective logical, but also the connotative meaning of the related words, reflecting the way the speakers perceive the information contained in the word. The most important role in conveying the connotative aspect of the semantics of the original word is played by its emotional, stylistic, and figurative components. “The greatest degree of equivalence is noted in those cases when the word in the translation corresponding to the translated word in other contexts and has the same stylistic characteristic. Often this is achieved by translating terms that have terminological correspondences.
