Abstract

The exchange between domestic and overseas products as well as services is increasing owing to the gradual advancement of globalization. In 1993, Gu Rong first proposed the concept of “translating product instructions,” then product instructions became a hot topic in the field of translation research. Based on empirical research, this paper analyzes the textual characteristics and translation strategies for product instructions in a bid to provide reference for translation research [1].
