SECTION I GENERAL OBLIGATIONS OF THE TRANSLATOR
第一章 翻譯工作者的義務
1. Translation, being an intellectual activity, the object of which is the transfer of literary, scientific and technical texts from one language into another, imposes on those who practice it specific obligations inherent in its very nature.
翻譯工作作為一種腦力勞動其目的是將文學、科學方面的材料從一種語言譯成另一種語言，從事這一工作的人承擔著由該工作性質產生的特殊義務。
