Abstract

In a globalised world, cross-cultural and intercultural communication is rapidly becoming an essential requirement of modern life in a variety of contexts. Globalisation has led to an increasing spread and development of English as a lingua franca specially in professional communities, most commonly used to do business, provide services and deliver information. Although English is the most commonly employed language in international communication (Salvi and Tanaka 2011; Salvi and Cheng 2013), translation can play a key role in mediating and facilitating these exchanges.
