Each language is the representation of people’s unique culture, beliefs and traditions. Thus, it is crucial to take these specific features into account when performing a translation, since even the most common words may have different connotations in different cultures.
The biggest mistake a translator can make is losing the meaning or the feeling that the author was trying to express. It may occur if the translator is not fully aware of the cultural aspects of the text or does not take into account the specifics of linguistic expression.
