The paper examines the concepts of the ‘skopos theory’ applying them to the translation of the source text, i.e. a newspaper article, from English into Hungarian. The problem of preserving semantic equivalence between the source text and the target text is addressed explaining the necessity of linguistic changes in meeting the expectations of the target culture.
