The purpose of the article is to describe the features and stages of translation of a scientific text from English into Russian exemplified by economic texts. As the author points out, complex grammatical forms and a large number of terms typical for the scientific style essentially complicate the comprehension of the scientific text.

Furthermore, the article analyzes the translation stages, the main being: reading the text, comprehension of its content, analysis of the structure, work at the vocabulary, literal translation (or expression of the thought), literary translation.

Then some examples of correct and incorrect translation are given, and recommendations that simplify the translation process and increase its adequacy are provided. The author describes and analyzes the features of the translation of an economic text taking an abstract from a scientific article as an example.
