Hi,

I am currently writing a dissertation on translation in the tourism industry (Polish-English brochures); however, I am struggling to find any literature on the subject with this particular language pair, apart from 'Successful Polish-English Translation.Tricks of the trade' by Korzeniowska and Kuhiwczak. Does anyone have any suggestions on the matter, or perhaps has any materials which they want to sell?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks Magdalena, that may be of some help! What I was also looking for were studies or journal articles on the subject of Polish-English/ English-Polish translations in the tourism sector. For instance, analysing mistakes and mistranslations in these text types. Do you know if anything like that is available online?

thanks
