The s ample of the study is the Arabic translation of the literary work the forty rules of love by Elif Shafak under the name قواعد العشق الاربعون. The selected date comprises five excerpts purposefully selected from the book and assessed through the dimensions of the Multidimensional Quality Metrics (MQM) framework. The excerpts are purposefully selected for their figurative language, idioms, cultural references, or emotional nuance. The findings show that that HT is more fluent and true to the source text ST.
