Fig 2.4 A model of the Translation process (Adapted from Bell, 1991 : 59)<br />

The Text can be translated only if it is unders<strong>to</strong>od properly. To understand a Text<br />

requires a multilevel approach, which treats the Text as the product of at least three types<br />

of choices which expresses different kinds of meaning reflected in the content, purpose<br />

and organization of the Text.<br />
