In this paper, I ask the question, not what level (word, clause, discourse) a particular theory of translation addresses, but at what level translation occurs. I problematize the notion of levels of translation and explore, even if only briefly, how translation is an endeavor that spans the rank scale from word group to discourse and beyond.
