English to Italian: Semiotics
Source text - English
"Semiotics or semiology is the science which studies signs in their natural habitat -society. Envisaged by Saussure as part of social psychology, and identified by Peirce as having a distinctly 'logical' bias, semiotics focuses on what constitutes signs, what regulates their interaction and what governs the ways they come into being or decay."
Translation - Italian
"Semiotica, o semiologia, è la scienza che studia i segni nel loro habitat naturale - la società. Vista da Saussure come parte della psicologia sociale e identificata da Peirce come avente un taglio distintamente 'logico', la semiotica focalizza la sua attenzione su ciò che costituisce un segno, cosa regola l'interazione tra segni diversi e cosa governa il modo in cui essi nascono o muoiono."

Translation - Italian
"La traduzione, o più esattamente l'operazione traduttiva /Li à Lj/, è un insieme di trasformazioni /di sostituzioni/ dei segni del messaggio d'entrata in segni appartenenti ad un altro codice, conservando /per quanto sia possibile a causa dell'entropia/ un'informazione invariante rispetto ad un sistema di riferimento dato."
