Title: On Mistranslations of Neologism in English News Publications
Abstract: Quite a number of mistakes have appeared in the comprehension and translation of neologism in English news publications which sometimes have led to the misunderstandings on the part of the target language readers.The main reason lies in the shortage of investigations into those phenomena on the part of translators.This paper,based on some examples from English newspapers,tries to initiate a tentative research on the causes that lead to the emergence of neologism in news publications and the mistranslation of them in light of the historical linguistics and sociolinguistics theories of language and vocabulary.
