This chaper provides an insight into why the current research focuses on the
translation procedures of different NGs’ constructions, the proposed aims and
research questions which serve as the backbone for the thorough investigation
process. Besides, the significance and scope of the study are also highlighted. Then,
the way in which the entire research is built is given with general description for each
chapter.
1.1. Rationale of the study
It is evident that information and communications technology (ICT) has held an
important and indispensable role in this integrated world. This field has a profound
effect on not only the development of the globe in general but also the
industrialization and modernization of Vietnam in particular. In order to be equipped
with the cutting-edge intelligence of human beings in ICT aspect, there is an urgent
need for Vietnamese to investigate the most advanced ICT materials which have
frequently been written in English. This paves the way for the flourishing demands
of ICT documents translated from English into Vietnamese.
Noticeably, the translation process which requires plenty of qualities poses a
number of challenges and obstacles on translators. Furthermore, technical translation
emphasizing on the accuracy of single details than other types of translation has
pushed communicators into difficulties in producing a translated version of high
quality. Byrne (2006) indicated that the responsibilities of translators in tackling a
technical document involve both adequate information transmission and the
guarantee that the data conveyed is exploited in an easy, precise and effective way by
readers.
Importantly, several impediments have been revealed for translators on the way
to fulfill the above missions. One among them is the distinctions of nominal groups
(NGs)’ structure between English and Vietnamese. It is observed that the rendering
of NGs which normally occur in a high frequency in technical texts encounters
hindrances partly due to the contrast in the grammatical structure of NGs between the
