ABSTRACT
“Translation is an intellectual activity that will continue to thrive,
deriving inspiration from fiction in the source language and passing on
such inspiration, or at least appreciation, to target-language readers.”
C. Thriveni
The present article is dedicated to the translation of words containing negative prefixes from English into Bulgarian. Special attention is paid to the translation correspondence of the negative prefixes in the two languages. Some specific problems in translation of words with such prefixes from English into Bulgarian are pointed out and some techniques of getting over these difficulties are suggested.
