It is a problem when we make a search for something, theoretical or practical, related to translation "between two languages" and then we come out with the list of attractive titles and then we find that the results of search are related to "blood translation" or something like "translating a material to another". We respect other sciences but there should be a global agreement on defining those terms so that researchers would not waste their time in searching for irrelevant items. This happened to me many times and I think it happened to most of the researchers of translation. Moreover, even those working on science are encountering the same problem. What do you think? Are there solutions for this problem?
This is true, but we can not blame translation or translators for the lack of agreement since it is caused by the research specialists' failure to establish their terms exclusively and vividly. Translators are only responsible for the precise and sincere transfer of the texts, terms, and the like that are introduced to them.

While it is true that the term being used for such different concepts can be confusing, a solution for transation researchers could be to use the metadata shown in the sidebar or advanced search of most academic search engines to their advantage. This would allow search results from medical journals and other unuseful sources to be removed from the search altogether.
The main cause is the translator that does not translate the words into their exact meaning. Moreover, in every language there are words that can not be translated or be given their true meaning by 100%.
I think that the Dr Falih Al-Emara has well described the causes of this problem
Yes , there must be a unified scientific terms ,that all in the field refer to.
also happens with legal terms .
