metadata.value: On the basis of a Russian-Chinese corpus (with a focus on academic texts of social sciences and the
  humanities), this paper explores operational norms governing translation of чтобы clauses that are
  typical to the Russian language. It concludes that: 1) there are three norms in their translation into
  Chinese: explicitation-implicitation norms, simplification-complication norms and domesticationforeignisation
  norms; 2) both explicitation and implicitation norms stand out in the translation of
  чтобы clauses into Chinese because formalisation disparities between Russian and Chinese are more
  striking than those between English and Chinese; 3) as for чтобы clauses, there are more simple
  sentences in the target texts (TT) than in the source texts (ST); there are more complex sentences in
  TT than in non-translational texts (NTT) because complex sentences are prevalent in Russian while
  simple sentences are common in Chinese; and 4) due to the structural features of the Russian language,
  foreignisation norms are more obvious than domestication norms respectively in the translation of
  чтобы clauses into Chinese. Refs 21. Tables 8.
