However, a language as such is a much wider notion. We have body language, i.e. non‑verbal stimuli which we receive, interpret and process, and all kinds of other aural and visual stimuli. A blind person, like a translation recipient, needs an audio describer, i.e., a „go‑between” who will decode visual elements for him or her and transform them in an understandable way. It is impossible not to notice a similarity between audio describers and translators. That is why we need to pay attention to specific features audio‑describers should have that are not absolutely necessary for translators, as well as some features useful for both groups.</p> ER -
