Preface
During the late 1980s and early 1990s a number of linguists engaged in research into different aspects of the lexicon were the guests of the Programme in Translation Studies in the Department of Linguistic and International Studies at the University of Surrey. The present volume contains some of the papers which resulted from this co-operation, together with contributions from colleagues with a particular interest in first and second language acquisition and/or translation. It was felt that, given the recent interest in different aspects of vocabulary studies, the papers would provide a potentially fruitful combination, linking ideas from different but, as it turns out, related fields. It was also felt that whereas translation studies had already tried to draw on the findings from a number of different disciplines, observations from the fields of first and second language acquisition had not, so far, been specifically related to translation.
The study of vocabulary may, of course, be approached from many different angles. In the present volume, the reader interested in learning about vocabulary is invited to share some of the recent research findings about words in a number of different areashow we learn them, store them, retrieve them in our first and second languages, how they are included in dictionaries and, finally, how we translate them. It is intended for those interested in reading around the subject of vocabulary, such as language teachers, students on advanced language courses, teachers of translation, postgraduate students on academic translation programmes, translators and, in addition, anyone interested in words, words, words...

Translation Studies and Linguistics
In considering the nature of translation studies as a relatively new discipline, it would seem only natural to view its emergence in the broader context of developments in the study of language. It is hardly surprising, therefore, to find that in the 1950s-1960s, at the time when Noam Chomsky put forward his ideas about a theory-based approach to the description of natural language, attempts were also made to develop a similar framework for the study of translation. In the United States, the writings of Eugene Nida reflected, as might be expected, the approach of American linguists at the time. Nida adapted Chomsky's grammatical model, then known as Transformational Generative Grammar, and analysed complex constructions into 'kernel' sentences in order to facilitate translation (cf. for example Nida, 1964; Nida & Taber, 1969). However, Chomsky's theoretical model of grammar was not the only one to gain currency. In the UK, Michael Halliday put forward his proposal for a Scale and Category Grammar, which in turn provided the impetus for Catford to develop an alternative approach to translation as outlined in
