A Study of Russian-Chinese Interpretation Based on the Analysis of Discourse Coherence

Abstract

This article studies strategies of Russian-Chinese interpretation based on the analysis of discourse coherence. The authors note that through studying and comparing the coherence in Russian and Chinese discourses, the degree of deviation between the source language and the target language can be measured. Meanwhile, the efficiency of interpreting can be accurately evaluated. This research attempts to contribute to further studies of interpretation, including theoretical and practical development in this research field, as well as to improve the quality of training programs. Thus, the quality of interpreting can be improved both theoretically and practically.
