Abstract :
Translation, particularly news translation, is an essential means of communication in information exchange era. Its quality influences international relationships and leads to offer readers either accurate or wrong information. Accordingly, it is essential to evaluate the quality of translated news texts. It is also important that the task of translation quality assessment be carried out with consideration of text function and its context. In this study, it is attempted to evaluate the quality of news translations in one of the major news sources of Iran media, namely ISNA news agency through the application of objectified discourse-based TQA model of Farahzad (1992). By applying this model to the corpus of the selected texts used in the present study, the researchers rated 10 news texts translation for 5 criteria of appropriateness, accuracy, naturalness, cohesion and style.
