摘要要研究翻译测试,首先要对研究对象做一个界定,其中包括翻译测试的定义及其与相关研究的关系,或者说是翻译测试在相关知识体系中的定位。现有的翻译研究文献里,翻译评价/量/鉴(translation evaluation)、翻译评估(translation assessment)和翻译批评(translation criticism)这几个词往往是不加定义就可以互相换用的,这给讨论带来了很多麻烦和误解。本文根据各类辞书和相关学科的有关讨论,结合实验,试图给翻译测试的定义作一番清理,描述出这几个常用概念之间的关系,为今后讨论奠定基础。 The present article attempts a definition for translation testing, which is followed by an examination of its relationship with the criteria for criticism and assessment or evaluation of translation.

2Translation evaluation is the placing of a value on a translation, i.e. awarding a mark, even if only a binary pass / fail one. Translation criticism consists in stating the appropriateness of a transla tion, this also implies a value judgment, which need not however be a quantified one, though it should perhaps be explicitly justified for it to be of any value. Translation assessment used as a cover term for the other two procedures. The verbs evaluate, criticize,etc. and the agent nouns evaluator, etc. are used analogously.--Gerard Mcalester 2000:231.
3I will use assessment to refer to the process of gathering information about the quality of students' emerging competence ; evaluation I understand as the process of attributing meaning to the information gathered ; testing is a scientific process of sampling performance with the goal of generalizing to competence ; and marking is an attempt to sort performance along a scale. --Don Kiraly 2000: 140.
