PROBLEMS OF DEFINING CONTEXTUAL MEANING IN TRANSLATION
Abstract
A language is way to see and understand the world. It is the vehicle of our ideas, thoughts and perspectives of our world. However, since human being is essentially a social animal we perpetually interact with our environment. This interaction with environment is a factor of time and space. When and where we are interacting determines what actually we are meaning. For example, ‘March’ is an act as well as month. The meaning depends on when, where and how.
