"Stylistique comparee du francais et de l'anglais: Methode de traduction"
J. P. Vinay and J. Darbelnet. Paris: France, Didier.
These two authors are Canadien and they have a whole series about
translations and issues that come up. Don't know of any works that
cover Asian languages, but my hunch is that some of what they say
for the activity of translating may be helpful for many language
combinations.
