Abstract EN

Blogs are being ignored by translators who are engaged most in issues relating to terminology, literature and language than in the unending challenges of technology and internet; the present writer is aware of no professional translation of blogs and / or their comments, though there are confusing attempts to translate search engines or websites.

This work suggests a practical working methodology of translating all sorts of blogs and their translation: a randomly chosen blog and comments are translated and shown next to the original texts, followed by a functional and structural analysis to be determined by the translator and her/his affiliation.

It has highlighted the linguistic, intellectual, pedagogical and cultural value of the translation of blogs and their comments, and ended up with a number of suggestions that open wide the arena for research: creation of relevant Arabic lexicons(dictionaries); resorting to (or qualifying of) professional editors to check produced translations; adding it to curricula of translation schools; and so forth.
