translation-related sense

 * 2018, Igor Grbić, The Occidentocentric Fallacy: Turning Literature into a Province'', page 74:
 * By using the opposite Latin prefix [of translation] I have suggested the term cislation, meaning carrying the reader—not the text—hither, cis, into the world inhabited by the particular work in question. Amidst the ongoing war between translators and cislators I would generally side with the latter. Translation realized as cislation necessarily challenges the reader with ways of doing, feeling, thinking and saying that are unlike the ways he knows from his own mother tongue/culture Whenever possible, one should stay clear from any ethnocentric policy ad translate only the language, not its culture. That is, one should try to cislate. (Having once pointed to the difference, but not wanting to strain the reader with yet another terminological dichotomy, I am going to use just the normal term translation, in both meanings, [...])

 * [...] (Grbić 2011:3). This interpretation thus places the cislating agent in the source culture, not the target culture. However, the same term has also been recently proposed by another scholar, with a totally different meaning (a difference much more significant that the one mentioned above concerning translatorship).

cisgender/transgender-related sense

 * to render, reduce or 'translate' (transgender people or concepts) into something cis people can understand


 * 2017, TJ Jourian, "Trans* ing constructs: Towards a critical trans* methodology", Tijdschrift voor Genderstudies:
