In this connection authors consider the terms "natiolect" and "regiolect" in comparison with the pluricentric languages theory. A special attention is paid to the problems of the translation specifics occurred in natiolect, especially to the problem of terminology and culture concepts translation. The problem of interlingual interference has also been taken into account. Authors emphasize the need to include these issues in the curriculum of translation and interpreting studies.

At the same time, practical teaching concepts for translators and interpreters at the University of Nitra (Slovakia) are briefly explained and explained from a methodological and didactic perspective.

It also describes how it is possible to improve the reading skills of the students based on the pragmalinguistic typology which has a decisive influence in developing the pupil's communicative competence. Pragmalinguistics is intended to enable an individual to recognize different texts and to understand exactly what the author wants to highlight. For this it is necessary to know how to produce semantically and syntactically acceptable sentences with the appropriate choice of words. Our basis is the cognitive theory of Eve Sweetser. According to her teaching an utterance is based on three cognitive linkage levels: the propositional, the epistemic and the speech act level.

The examined translation(s) was a legal text, translated from Slovak (mother tongue) into German. We distinguish human translation (HT), machine translation (MT) and post-edited MT (PEMT). For the evaluation we used our own tool, wherein were implemented the metrics of automatic MT evaluation. Analysis of Variance and Multiply Comparisons (Tukey HSD test) were applied to textual data. The results proved that in terms of productivity, regarding the expert and terminological knowledge of human translators, post-editing of MT is more effective than HT. On the other hand, in terms of quality (sentence structure or stylistics), regardless of time, HT is of a higher quality then MT, but similar to PEMT. The post-editors were affected by grammar and by stylistics of MT output, but post-edited a larger volume of M...

German is the source language, with significant polysynthetic features in the formation of composites, and the target language is Slovak, with predominantly inflected features. We analyse twelve error categories, which are incorporated into the categorical framework for the analysis of MT errors and correspond to the four-member core MQM-DQF error typology. The results show that the most significant errors are in the categories of lexical semantics, syntactic-semantic correlativeness and grammar.

Many researchers have reported a method that uses blood smear to avoid overlapping of red blood cells (RBCs). Moreover, they have applied the refractive index of the blood plasma. However, the blood smear is not blood plasma, so that it cannot obtain the accurate depth information. In addition, it is difficult to measure the refractive index of the surrounding medium in every experiment. To solve this problem, in this paper, we propose a new method to record a hologram using a sample of a mixture of blood and a uniform microsphere. We have already known the size of the microsphere in the experiment. Thus, we can modify the refractive index of the surrounding medium. Finally, we can measure the accurate depth information of the specimen using the modified refractive index of the surrounding medium. The proposed method can be used not only in RBCs but also in the study of cells or microbial.

In this paper, we derive a simple but generalized formula for subpixel mappings from a naïve ray-tracing technique on RGB stripe type panels. To verify the proposed algorithm, our proto-type auto-stereoscopic display using parallax barriers with a slanted angle was used and examined in the experiment. The proposed algorithm is expected to leverage converting multi-view 3D inputs to various types of auto-stereoscopic contents in real time.
