treated as equivalents

This probably refers to the concept of "equivalence", which comes up an awful lot in translation studies.

Could do with wider context, really, but without that I'd go for "treated as equivalents".

Open the ref below and do a "find" on "equiv" and you can read more about the concept of equivalence.
