Abstract

With the quickening pace of economic globalization and the deepening of China's reform and opening-up policy, the trade between China and other countries is becoming more and more frequent. At the same time, more and more foreign products have flooded into the Chinese market. Electronic products have penetrated all aspects of people's work and life in recent years. Therefore, the importance of electronic product instruction translation has never been highlighted like today. Nevertheless, due to the lack of the guidance of systematic theories, there occur some errors in the translation of electronic product instruction. Skopostheorie holds that translation is a purposeful activity, and the purpose of translation determine all translation activities. As one of the application texts, the electronic product instruction apparently has a strong purpose, and its main purpose is to transmit related product information. This paper aims to take electronic product instruction translation as a case study and tries to analyze various translation errors by giving concrete examples in the process of translating and put forward the corresponding solutions to the relevant areas of research and provide a feasible strategy for it.
