Abstract:
The paper focuses on the problems of studying transformational properties of language objects in the process of translation of predicative structures from French into Russian. The paper studies the cases when in the process of translation, predicative words change their syntactic category or their grammatical features. The texts of patents in French and their translations into Russian performed by professional translators were used as the material for the research.
Keywords:machine translation from French into Russian; functional semantics; language transformations; head-driven grammars.
