Translation is the process by which the meaning of a text in one language, or “source text”, is understood and converted to a new text, in another language, called “translated text”, “target text” or “ target text”. When this process is done orally we call it interpretation.

Interpretation is older than writing. The translation had to wait for the appearance of written literature. It is known that there are partial translations of the  Epic of Gilgamesh  (2000 BC) into Near Eastern languages ​​of the time. As is often the case with ancient history, it is difficult to determine when exactly the translation began.

History of English language

English is a Germanic language originating from the  Anglo-Frisian languages  ​​brought to  Britain  by the Roman invaders.

Initially, Old English was a group of several dialects, reflecting the varied origin of the  Anglo-Saxon kingdoms  of  England . One of these dialects, Late West Saxon, at one point came to dominate.

The original Old English language was then influenced by two waves of invasion: the first was from speakers of the Scandinavian branch of the Germanic languages, who conquered and colonized parts of Britain, the second was from the Normans in the 11th century, who spoke Old Norman and developed a variety of English called Anglo-Norman. These two invasions caused English to become mixed to some extent.

Cohabitation with the  Scandinavians , who would have spoken dialects of  Old Norse , led to a significant grammatical simplification and lexical enrichment of the Anglo-Frisian core of English; The subsequent  Norman occupation  led to the grafting of a layer of more elaborate words from the  Romance languages  ​​(derived from  Latin ). This Norman influence on English penetrated through the courts and the government. With the arrival of the Renaissance, Latin and classical Greek supplanted Norman French as the main source of new words.

Gujarati language

Gujarati ( autoglotny : Gujarātī, English: Gujarati) is a language that comes from the state of  Gujarat , in western  India . It is an  Indo-European language , from the  Indo-Aryan family , spoken by about 46 million people around the world, making it the  23rd  most spoken language in the world. Of all of them, approximately 45.5 million reside in India, 250,000 in  Tanzania , 150,000 in  Uganda , 100,000 in  Pakistan  and 50,000 in  Kenya .

Gujarati is the main language of the  state of Gujarat , as well as the adjacent territories of  Daman and Diu  and  Dadra and Nagar Haveli . There are also sizable communities of speakers in the  United States  and the  United Kingdom . In England, two popular areas with Gujarati populations are  Leicester  (Midlands) and  Wembley  (north London). And in the United States, they are especially found in states such as  New Jersey ,  New York ,  California  , and  Texas .

Due to the size of the Gujarati population spread across the world, from Africa, the  Middle East  to  the United Kingdom  and the  United States , some jokingly call them non-resident Gujaratis instead of the official term non-resident Indians. It is one of the 14 official regional languages ​​of India. It was the mother tongue of  Mohandas K. Gandhi , the “father of India”, and  Muhammad Ali Jinnah , the “father of Pakistan”.
