Title: Cat tools in teaching specialized translation for civil protection Authors: Kucherenko, Maryna Abstract: The paper explores the integration of Computer-Assisted Translation (CAT) tools into teaching specialized translation for civil protection. Translators in this field work with documentation from international organizations, such as operational guidelines, emergency response protocols, technical manuals, and safety recommendations, which demands high terminological accuracy and consistency across documents. CAT tools do not replace the translator, unlike machine translation systems. Instead, they help students build professional competencies in terminology management, translation memory use, quality assurance, and post-editing, while strengthening informed translation decision-making. The paper argues for authentic professional materials as the basis for translation tasks, including the IAEA Nuclear Safety and Security Glossary, the WHO Laboratory Biosafety Manual, and NATO documents on CBRN defence. As a practical example, it describes tasks on the MateCat platform: creating a project glossary, working with translation memory matches, and using quality assurance functions to detect terminological inconsistencies. Corpus analysis in Sketch Engine is proposed as a complementary resource for examining terms in context and building reliable termbases. The approach brings classroom instruction closer to real-world translation practice and prepares future translators for work in security-related contexts.

Title: Translation transformations in English-Ukrainian rendering of CBRN terminology Authors: Kucherenko, Maryna Abstract: The paper examines translation transformations used in the English-Ukrainian rendering of CBRN (chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear) defense terminology. Its relevance stems from Ukraine’s integration into Euro-Atlantic security structures, which requires harmonizing Ukrainian military-technical terminology with international standards, in particular NATO STANAG. Drawing on Eugene Nida’s distinction between formal correspondence and dynamic equivalence, and on the transformation models of J.-P. Vinay, J. Darbelnet, and V. Karaban, the study analyzes 20 key terminological units selected from the NATO Glossary on CBRN Issues, the FEMA Glossary of Terms, European Commission documentation, and NATO Science for Peace and Security Program reports. The identified shifts are classified into lexical, grammatical, and mixed transformations. Loan translation (calquing) proves to be the dominant technique (40%), driven by interoperability requirements. Direct equivalents account for 20%, descriptive translation for 15%, and transliteration for 10%, while concretization, generalization, and combined transformations each account for 5%. The findings show that adequate rendering of CBRN terminology requires balancing formal accuracy with adaptation to established Ukrainian military terminology.

Title: TRANSLATION STRATEGIES FOR ENGLISH TERMINOLOGY IN RADIOLOGICAL SAFETY Authors: Kucherenko, Maryna Abstract: his study explores the linguistic and pragmatic aspects of translating English radiological safety terms into Ukrainian. It examines the strategic balance between cultural adaptation (domestication) and source-text preservation (foreignization) in regulatory and instructional texts, aiming to eliminate ambiguity and enhance operational safety in emergency response scenarios.

Title: STRATEGIES FOR TRANSLATING ENGLISH-LANGUAGE TERMS CONTAINING THE COMPONENT “TOXIC” IN THE FIELD OF CHEMICAL AND RADIOLOGICAL SAFETY Authors: Kucherenko, Maryna Description: This study examines the linguistic behavior and translation transformations applied when adapting English safety terms containing the component "toxic" into the Ukrainian language. It highlights the strategic shift from literal translation to contextual equivalents aligned with national military standards to maintain operational safety and clarity in disaster response.
