Abstract :Translation, similar to the reading act, is an in-depth process that involves linguistic, social and cultural components. This intricate process of translation can only be carried out correctly by translators who are true readers. It is essential to incorporate various exercises in translation education that allow students to identify the existing prefixes and suffixes they encounter in any text during the translation process and to make accurate inferences for unknown words in order to train strategic readers who are far from mechanical reading acts to have awareness. In fact, the act of translation, like reading, requires the translator\'s intuition, cultural and linguistic competence to access the true meaning of the text. In this respect, some inferring strategies such as cognate-based inferring, collocation-based inferring and particularly affix-based inferring are elucidated. Additionally, we have offered some exercises and practice activities expecting to contribute to the training of the future translators.Keywords : Çeviri, Okuma, Önekler, Sonekler, Çıkarım
