GENDER BIAS IN TRANSLATION: CHALLENGES IN RENDERING GENDER-SPECIFIC TERMS

Annotation: This article explores the linguistic and ideological challenges related to gender bias in translation. It focuses on how gender-specific terms in source texts—such as occupational titles and pronoun structures—are rendered in the target language. The discussion draws upon feminist translation theories and provides examples from English-to-Uzbek translations, where grammatical gender is absent, yet socio-cultural gender roles remain influential. The article also examines the potential distortions or erasures that can occur when gender-neutral or gender-specific meanings are not adequately preserved in translation.
