INTRODUCTION The need for translation has always existed since the appearance of the human being on the Earth. Translation is not only a way to explain what a language said to another, it is also a way to present one culture to another. As to the notion of culture, Edward Burnett Tylor considers that , “culture…is that complex whole which includes knowledge, belief, art, morals, law, customs and many other capabilities and habits acquired by man as a member of society”.
