Contraction linguistic equivalence

Its a translation method, it consist of a grammatical reduction in whic elements are eliminate in the translated text. So contraction is the opposite procedure of the additions one. We must be carefull with the information that we are cutting off because we could lose the meaning of the text. For Example:

The violence cames after three pro-Morsi demonstrators were killed by security forces in another part from the capital / La violencia se produjo después de que tres manifestantes pro-Morsi fueran asesinados por las fuerzas de seguridad en otra parte de la capital.

After contraction

The violence cames after three pro-Morsi demonstrators were killed by security forces / La violencia se produjo después de que tres manifestantes pro- Morsi fueran asesinados por las fuerzas de seguridad.
