The analysis included opinions of different translation theorists on whether translation of proper nouns is necessary and how they should be translated. This part included examples of different American enterprises and institutions and also some names that the author had made up. The problem with the names of different enterprises was whether or not they had accepted translations in estonian, and if not, then how they should be translated.

In this part the aim was to make the terms as easily understandable as possible for the average reader. It can be concluded that the present master’s thesis dealt with problems concerning the translation of proper names and different medical and criminological vocabulary.
