Analysis of Foreign Scientific Research on Training Specialized Translators Based on Information Resources

This article analyzes foreign scientific research devoted to the training of specialized translators through the use of information resources. In contemporary translation education, the translator is no longer viewed only as a bilingual mediator, but as a professional who must work with terminology databases, corpora, electronic dictionaries, translation memories, machine translation systems, digital archives and subject-specific information platforms. The purpose of the article is to examine how international research conceptualizes the role of information resources in developing specialized translation competence. The study is based on a qualitative literature review of major foreign models and approaches, including the EMT competence framework, the PACTE translation competence model, technology-oriented translation pedagogy, corpus-based translator training and neural machine translation research. The results show that foreign studies emphasize the integration of linguistic, technological, strategic, intercultural and subject-field competences. At the same time, the analysis reveals that many international models describe translator competence broadly, while fewer studies offer a step-by-step didactic mechanism for training specialized translators through information resources. The article concludes that information-resource-based translator training should combine subject knowledge, terminology management, corpus literacy, digital competence and reflective translation practice.
