What is the nature of translation

、Translation is a ascience,an art,a skill,a craft,an operation or a kind of communication
B、If "translation"refers to a subject,namely,the study of translation theory and skills,it is no doubt a ascience with its own rules,laws and priciples for the translators to abide by
C、If it refers to some specific pieces of translation,then it is more like an art,with each piece manifesting its own charms and style in the creative hands of the translator
D、If it refers to a process,then we may regard it as a craft or skill.For unlike any branch of natural science,the process of translation has its peculiarity,and none of its rules and priciples is universally applicable/
