Abstract

: The aim of this study is to analyse the challenges involved in the translation from English to Spanish of a text about sex reassignment due to the complexity that certain aspects of gender, as well as terminology and phraseology related to it, imply for the constitution of a new identity. For the analysis, a qualitative methodology will be followed based on the solutions provided by thirdyear students of the ScientificTechnical Translation course of the Degree in Modern Languages and Translation from the University of Alcalá. The results show that, although there is a certain level of awareness among students when it comes to finding translation solutions in this type of texts, greater emphasis should be placed on translation training from a pragmatic approach. This will help them to be aware of the potential of their work when it comes to building and disseminating knowledge through the translated text
