When translating from one language to another, lack of good command of some skills in both the source and the target languages culturally may lead to a set of translation errors. It is essential that one should not only possess some vocabulary skills in both languages, but also know about the pragmatic rules that govern the language in the appropriate selection and combination of single words into sentences. The article seeks to examine; the possible effects of “lexical field theory” introduced by Trier, who had been inspired by the suggestions of Humboldt and Saussure for language, on developing text comprehension skills and narrative competence; and how the theory can be of any use in translation studies. According to Trier (1931), one can only acquire the meaning of a word through its relationships to other words within the same word-field. Meaning does not exist without the word-field. Lack of a concrete word relating to the thought to be described does not imply the nonexistence of that thought in the language. Based on experience and cultural knowledge, we can interpret this concept.
