Leksikos variantiškumas ir konkurencija Europos Sąjungos dokumentų vertimuose
Variation and Competition of Lexis in the Translation of European Union Documents

Summary/Abstract: This article discusses the topic of the variation and competition of lexical units in translation of EU documents. Different linguists treat the phenomena of variation and competition differently. This shows that there is no single, universally accepted concept of these linguistic phenomena. The aim of the article is to analyse the phenomena of variation and competition, to disclose the relation between variants and competitors as well as between other similar concepts, such as duplets, synonyms, counterparts, substitutes, and to look into the causes of their occurrence in translations of EU documents.
