摘要

No Uncertain Terms is published as an aid to translators to promote accuracy intranslations published by the Foreign Broadcast Information Service. The magazine is intended as a forum for the observations of U.S. Government translators and interpreters. Word lists or short articles elucidating specific, practical translation problems at the stylistic, grammatical, or individual word level are solicited. In this issue we present several Russian word lists, two contributed by readers (Russian Social Science Terms, and Problem Russian Terms). Russian Legal Terms represents the best efforts of our FBIS linguists, analysts, and editors to sort out terminology in the new Russian legal and political system, and is, of course, subject to being updated as the situation there develops. The article on Haitian Creole was submitted by one of our bureau monitors.
