The translator is the professional who carries out the translation, an activity based on the interpretation of the meaning of a text and on the subsequent production of a new text, equivalent to the original one, but in another language. The translator's purpose is to try to bring the text from the source language to the target language in such a way as to keep the meaning and style of the text as unaltered as possible, resorting, if and when necessary, to adaptation processes. Because of the differences between languages, it is often difficult (if not impossible: there are many supporters of the untranslatability of languages) to keep both the exact meaning and the style of writing - the rhythm, the register, the sound, metrics - and the translator is forced to make choices that change according to the nature of the text itself and the purposes that the translation has for itself.
