The paper focuses on translation of culture-loaded words from Russian into English and from Russian into Chinese in travel guidebooks. Culture-loaded words (realia) are defined as words carrying information about national customs, values, beliefs, and ways of thinking that have no direct equivalents in the receiving culture. Data shows that the most appropriate techniques to transmit the initial meaning of these words are explicitation and (phonetic) transcription, where applicable, whereas the least appropriate techniques are generalization and borrowing concepts from another culture. Established or emerging traditions in dealing with culture-loaded words in translation are briefly addressed in the paper, and directions for future research are outlined, aimed at improving the quality of tourist materials translation in both language pairs.
