Well, first, the translator should have a good understanding of both the source and target languages' cultural backgrounds. This helps in choosing the right words and expressions. Then, proofreading is crucial. Check for grammar mistakes and make sure the translated text is smooth. Moreover, getting feedback from native speakers of the target language can also enhance the readability of translated short stories.

To improve the readability of translated short stories, it is essential to consider the target audience. If it's for children, the language should be really simple and vivid. For adults, it can be a bit more complex but still clear. The translator can also add some footnotes to explain cultural - specific elements if necessary. This way, the readers can better understand the story without getting confused by unfamiliar concepts.
