This article explores the distinct but interconnected disciplines of comparative literature, comparative linguistics,
and translation studies. It outlines the primary focus of each field literature across cultures, structural language
comparison, and the theory and practice of translation while highlighting their overlaps. Through detailed explanations,
the article demonstrates how these fields contribute to understanding cultural exchange, language development, and
textual interpretation. Emphasis is placed on interdisciplinary collaboration, especially in the study of multilingual texts,
language change, and the politics of translation in a globalized world
