Part I: INTRODUCTION
1. Reason of the study
In the age of worldwide development and cooperation, English becomes more and
more important in every field of social life. It is the golden key in the process of
integration into outside world and gradually proves itself as an effective mean of
communicating with foreign people. In addition, English also provides us chances
to have a good career as well as closer relationship with people all over the world.
Industry is considered as the most important department in economy of every
country. In order to have a developed industry, it is necessary to enhance the
working facility to make higher productivity as well as improve the knowledge of
science and technology. However, science and technology changes everyday,
which requires us always up-date the information and extend knowledge. There are
many ways to access the technology development of many developed countries
such as internet, newspaper . but the best way is exchanging the technology with
other countries.
Industrial paint is such a small department in industry but it still has its role in the
development of every factories. It is not only used to decorate and protect
equipments from oxidization but also help them work more effectively. Besides,
the terms in industrial paint are various and exciting. Thus, extending the
knowledge of industrial paint will help us easier to enhance our products as well as
technical terms. That is why I am interested in the industrial paint and I hope to
have a thorough understanding about technical translation after finishing this
research.
2. Aims of the study
The study on translation of terms related to Industrial paint aims to figure out an
overview on translation strategies and procedures commonly used in Industrial
paint field.
In details, my Graduation Papers aims at:
 Collecting and presenting Basic English terms in Industrial paint.
 Providing their Vietnamese equivalences and expressions.
 Preliminarily analyzing translation strategies and procedures employed in
translation of these English terms into Vietnamese.
 Providing students majoring in the subject and those who may concern a
draft and short reference of Basic English terms in Industrial paint and their
corresponding Vietnamese.
I hope this study can provide readers with overall comprehension about the
information from written context and from visual forms of presentation related to
Industrial paint‟s terms.
3. Scope of the study
Technical terms are divided into different vocabularies and they require a great
effort and time to study. Because the information changes everyday and every
time, the accumulating of specialistic information is considered urgent. Due to
limited knowledge and time, my study can not cover all aspect of this theme. I just
focus the study on translation and translation strategies in general, and the
contrastive analysis between specific terms related to Industrial paint in English
and in Vietnamese.
4. Method of the study
All of English and Vietnamese terms in my Graduation Paper are collected from
Internet, industrial dictionary and referenced books. These data are divided into
groups based on their common characteristics and there are a lot of examples or
illustrations attached in each part. The information is ensured because all of them
are chosen from believable sources.
5. Design of the study
My Graduation Paper is divided into three parts, in which the second part is the
most important.
 Part I is the INTRODUCTION, consisting of reason of the study, aims of
the study, scope of the study, method of the study and design of the study.
 Part II is the DEVELOPMENT, containing three chapters:
Chapter 1 is theoretical background which focuses on the definition,
method, procedures of translation in general and ESP translation.
Chapter 2 is an investigation on translation of terms related so
Industrial paint from English into Vietnamese with the translation
strategies.
Chapter 3 is the implication of difficulties in translating technical
terms and some tips for better translation.
 Part III is the CONCLUSION, including main findings and suggestion for
further studies.
