BRIDGING CULTURAL GAPS: TRAINING TRANSLATORS FOR MULTILINGUAL AND MULTICULTURAL COMMUNICATION IN THE DIGITAL AGE

In the digital age, translators face unprecedented challenges in navigating multilingual and multicultural communication, where cultural nuances and technological advancements intersect. This article examines the evolving role of translator training in addressing cultural gaps, drawing on theoretical frameworks from translation studies, intercultural communication, and digital humanities. It identifies challenges such as culture-specific untranslatability, ethical dilemmas, and the impact of AI-driven tools. Pedagogical solutions are proposed, including intercultural competence development, technology-integrated curricula, and collaborative learning models. Through case studies and empirical insights, the study advocates for adaptive training programs that balance linguistic proficiency, cultural sensitivity, and digital literacy. The findings emphasize the need for a holistic approach to prepare translators for effective global communication in diverse digital contexts.在数字时代，译者在开展多语言跨文化传播工作时面临前所未有的挑战，这一场景恰恰是文化细微差异与技术革新的交汇地带。本文依托翻译研究（Translation Studies）、跨文化传播（Intercultural Communication）及数字人文（Digital Humanities）领域的理论框架，考察译者培训在弥合文化鸿沟过程中不断演变的角色。本文指出了多项挑战，包括特定文化语境下的不可译性、伦理困境，以及人工智能（AI）驱动工具带来的影响。研究提出了若干教学解决方案，涵盖跨文化能力培养、整合技术的课程体系与协作学习模式。本研究通过案例研究与实证洞察，倡导构建兼顾语言能力、文化敏感度与数字素养的适应性培训项目。研究结果强调，需采用整体化路径培养译者，使其能够在多元数字语境下实现高效的全球传播。
