Scientific and technical English plays a crucial role in international communication, and the study of its translation holds significant importance for English translators.Based on Nida's Functional Equivalence Theory, this study focuses on the translation of scientific and technical English texts, exploring their characteristics in terms of vocabulary, syntax, discourse, and style.It also examines the practical application of Functional Equivalence Theory in the translation process.Through case analysis, the study finds that the translation of scientific and technical texts primarily employs methods, such as literal translation, amplification, division, and conversion, while free translation is used less frequently.Under the guidance of Functional Equivalence Theory, translators can effectively improve translation quality by appropriately applying these strategies.Therefore, this theory not only provides theoretical guidance for enhancing the quality of scientific and technical English translation, but also contributes to the professional development of translators.
