摘要：
This study shows issues of comparing English translations of Holy Quran and its Arabic text from discourse structure perspective. There are several different translations of Quran, which differ in structure and word domain. In these translations, the order of sentences, phrases, and words is different, which affects computational text analyzing results. It is a new idea to study translations of Quran from entity coherence and lexical cohesion point of view, as a method for evaluating the accuracy and equivalence of existing translations. The results of this study even can be used for machine translation in the future. This research is a preliminary stage of investigating the issues, constructing a platform and defining of some preliminary rules for comparing and evaluating discourse structure of translations.
