Writing is the process of creating written materials, such as books, articles, stories, and other forms of written content. It involves the use of language to convey ideas and express thoughts, emotions, and information. Writing can be creative or technical, and can be done in different styles and formats, such as fiction, non-fiction, poetry, and academic writing.
Translation, on the other hand, is the process of converting written materials from one language to another. It involves taking written content written in one language and rendering it into another language while maintaining the meaning, context, and style of the original text. Translation can be done for a variety of written materials including books, articles, subtitles and legal documents, and it requires a strong understanding of both the source and target languages, as well as the cultural context of the text. A translator must also understand idiomatic expressions and cultural references that may not have an equivalent in the target language.
