A distinguishing characteristic between more-qualified and less qualified translators is the degree of literalness of their interpretations: those by amateur translators are typically very literal, being in many instances almost word-for-word "verbal transposition" rather than translations, whereas those by professional translators are substantially more in agreement with the idiom of the target language.

CONT

Il n'en reste pas moins que, avec ou sans lecture simultanée, l'interprète, confronté à un exposé qui, pour lui, est dépourvu de redondances, risque, à son corps défendant, de passer de la traduction à ce que D. Saleskovitch a appelé la transposition verbale.
