Abstract

The main aim of this paper is to provide information for a better understanding of specialized translation. We have decided to tackle the terminology used in the industry of wind turbines technology, driven by our observations that, against the background of globalized economy, most communication, especially at the top level, is carried out in English, which, nowadays, is seen as a lingua franca. In order to comply with the norms of technical translation, we conducted research on several documents written in Romanian, reports released by wind turbine companies in our country, bilingual technical dictionaries, etc. In the last part of this paper, we selected and analyzed a range of terms and looked at the difficulties a translator may face.
