Inspired by the authors’ keen interest in lexicography and active involvement in the compilation of Duramazwi reMimhanzi, it discusses the advantages and disad-vantages of loan translation. Analysis of this term-creation strategy is done using Chimhundu’s (1996) trans-lation and terminology development theory known as the scan and balance theory.}, number={1}, journal={Lexikos}, author={Mheta, Gift and Muhwati, Itai}, year={1}, month={1} }
