| Summary: | This article addresses the issue of translation from a linguistic and cultural perspective, focusing on the term "ترجمة" (Tarjim) through a deep analysis of three aspects: language, context of use, and Arabic morphological patterns. The author discusses a debate regarding the authenticity of the term and its cultural impact, noting that "ترجمة" is not of Arabic origin and was adopted in the twentieth century to reflect values of openness to other languages and cultures. The article employs a comparative analytical approach that favors linguistic evidence over cultural justifications, thereby enhancing the understanding of the linguistic and cultural values that have influenced the Arabic language throughout history.
