The [translator] profession requires such movements to and from intercultural and technical communities; it requires a plethora of new names for the new jobs thus created ("language-service provider" is currently the most apt). Yet our focus here is first and foremost on what translators bring to those communities, on their particular kind of competence. We thus stay with the term "translation competence", and with our minimalist approach. 5, record 2, English, - language%2Dservice%20provider
