 Transfer of amino acids to specific tRNA  already present in cytoplasm .

Association of ribosome with first codon on the mRNA .

This is called translation .

Attachment of second tRNA carrying the second amino acid to the second codon and release of first one along with formation of a dipeptide on the second tRNA by the help enzymes and the elongation factor.
