Answer:

E. parallel translation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information provided it can be said that the type of translation commonly used to overcome this problem is parallel translation. This is a type of translation in which two translators both work on the same text in order to create a back translation. This translation is later compared and analyzed, until the most appropriate translation is chosen for use.
