Summary/Abstract: The present article aims at presenting some aspects of the textlinguistic and functionalist approaches to translation and, at observing how the functionalist approach can be used in practice on a business text excerpt, placing an emphasis on the pragmatic equivalence and the features of the ST that have to be rendered accurately so as to create the same functionality of the TT as in the ST.
