This article explores the translation of poetic rhythm: not the rhythm of the source text, but the rhythm of the translational act itself. This re-conception of translation’s rhythmic task is enabled by a translation designed for the polyglot, rather than for the monoglot, reader. In this new understanding of translational process, rhythm not only embodies the perceptual and cognitive experience of the translating subject, it also makes more intimate the relationship between language and voice, the linguistic and the paralinguistic. Furthermore, it has as much to do with the space of translation, its distribution on the page, as with its changing temporal modes. The translator, then, does not translate the rhythm of a text so much as a text’s capacity for rhythm, and that capacity includes both espousing the perspective of a translating ‘I’ and releasing what is not linguistically manifest in the source text. These propositions are tested in two translations of Leconte de Lisle’s ‘Midi’.

Philosophical translation between "linguistic violence" and translative hermeneutics. Translational considerations from the perspective of the translation(s) of Jean-Paul Sartre's L'être et le néant The establishment of translatology as a scientific discipline is a late phenomenon to which not only linguistics but also the philosophy of language has contributed significantly. Although the considerations of Schleiermacher, Ricoeur, Derrida, Balibar, Cassin and other philosophers are very stimulating for the examination of the translation problematics, they do not offer a particular translation theory of philosophical texts. Most of their works are of little help in practice when it comes to translating a complicated philosophical text. That is why I will take in this paper the opposite path and start from my own experience as a translator of philosophical literature into Bulgarian and, more concretely, from my translation of Jean-Paul Sartre's L'être et le néant. On the base of this key work of contemporary philosophy and its translations into different languages, I will address the difficulties and the specifics of philosophical translation, discuss various translation methods, and argue several theses, which could serve as impulses for a further development of translation theory and translation practice in the field of philosophy.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Secondary translations of Turkish literary works represent a unique translational chal- lenge, considering that the original text is written in a language that differs significantly in structure from the Indo-European languages, from which these translations are mostly made. By contrasting the Turkish onomastic words with their transcription into Serbian, the prob- lems of the translation appear when translating from a translation. Although in the transla- tion of Turkish works from English and German, the language of the mediator, a considerable number of correctly chosen solutions can be found in the transcription of anthroponyms and toponyms, the analysis carried out shows that the occurring errors are most often due to the nature of the language of the mediator or due to the negligence of the translator. This situation supports translators’ opinion that translating from a translation should be used only when direct translation is not possible.

Translation Epistemology: Implied and Expressed The starting point for determining the nature of translation epistemology, which develops in parallel to the philosophical theory of cognition, is to distinguish an internal epistemology that permeates the field of translation communication – one of the varieties of verbal textual communication. Its goals are cognitive and exploratory. Cognition refers to the essence of translational communication, exploration refers to the forms differentiating this type of communication. I define translation as the interlingual re-editing of a ready text; and in the space of textual communication it generates seven fundamental components: 1. foreign-language originals or foreign-language translations, 2. mental translations (paratexts), 3. complete translations, 4. fragmentary translations, 5. translation-like structures, 6. translational reflections, and 7. translational fantasies. In this area the epistemology of translation is equivalent to the documentalist’s epistemology. For the translator, any textual structure, subjected to interlingual re-editing, becomes a document as well as a task. In the process of translation, cognitive activity is intertwined with praxeological one, the acquisition of knowledge is combined with the improvement of the craft of translation, the concurrence of cognition and skill prevails. The whole epistemological activity of translators and translation scholars, implicit and explicit, consists in the fact that the translator repeats the hypothetical path of the original author, while the translation scholar repeats bot the hypothetical path of the translator and the hypothetical path of the original author.

The study focuses on problems encountered by translation students when translating English compound-complex sentences into Arabic. It explores their structure, their components, and the appropriate way of translating them with the preservation of the same structure and meaning into the TL. The study hypothesizes: 1) compound-complex sentences can be found in English and Arabic. 2) Such structures are problematic for students when translating them into Arabic. 3) Vinay& Darbelnet’s translational model is applicable in translating compound - complex sentences. The study presents a comprehensive theoretical explanation on compound-complex sentences in both English and Arabic. Then, (3) English compound-complex sentences have been selected from different English grammar books and handed over to (20) undergraduate 4th stage students at the Department of Translation_ College of Arts_ University of Mosul, to handle the task of translating these sentences into Arabic. Their translations were analyzed syntactically and semantically by adopting Vinay& Darbelnet’s translational model(1958/1995) as well as Catford’s classification of translation-shifts (1965); in order to detect the difficulties and problems encountered in translating the sentences; thus, it’s a qualitative study. The study concludes that:1) compound-complex sentences are found in English and Arabic, 2) such sentences are problematic for students when translating them into Arabic either by the difficulty of identifying their parts, making unnecessary shifts, or adopting inappropriate strategy during the translational process that affect their translation accuracy, syntactically and semantically. 3) Vinay& Darbelent’s translational model is applicable to translating compound-complex sentences by adopting literal translation procedure within direct translation strategy. Based on that, the study is classified as a descriptive one.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This study explores the performance of machine translation of literary texts from English to Chinese. The study compares two machine translation systems, Bing Translator and Youdao Machine Translation, using selected texts from the novel “Nineteen eighty-four” by George Orwell. The data collection includes the original source texts, their machine-generated translations by Bing Translator and Youdao Machine Translation, and comparisons with human reference translations to assess the performance of these systems. The research’s focal point is to evaluate the accuracy, fluency, and appropriateness of translations generated by these two machine translation systems, while also analyzing the post-editing effort required to enhance the quality of the final machine-translated product. The study revealed that despite the presence of flaws in both machine translation systems, Youdao Machine Translation demonstrated superior performance, especially in accurately translating technical terms and idiomatic expressions, making it the more effective option overall. Nevertheless, the translations from Youdao Machine Translation required more substantial post-editing efforts to improve fluency and readability. Conversely, Bing Translator yielded more fluent and natural-sounding translations, albeit with a need for improved accuracy in translating technical terms and idiomatic expressions. The study concludes that while machine translation systems are capable of generating reasonable translations for literary texts, human post-editing remains essential to ensure the final output’s accuracy, fluency, and appropriateness. The study underscores the importance of selecting the appropriate machine translation system based on the nature of the text being translated. It also highlights the critical role of post-editing in refining the quality of machine-translated outputs, suggesting that while machine translation can provide a solid foundation, human intervention is indispensable for achieving optimal accuracy, fluency, and overall readability in literary translations.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This article studies linguistic landscape (LL) from a translational perspective. It aims to examine the translation strategies adopted in translating texts on non-official public signs and assess the quality of their translations. For accomplishing this, the author analysed a corpus of one hundred photos of public signage representing bilingual (translational) content based on two criteria. Namely, the translation strategies employed in translating public signs and the appropriateness of public signage translations for their target readers. The study concludes that several translation strategies are used to convey the informative content of public signs, such as transference, word-for-word translation, generalisation, and omission. Furthermore, the study reveals cases of inaccurate translations that can be attributed to the translator’s linguistic incompetence, improper use of translation strategies, and linguistic incompatibilities between English and Arabic. Such mistranslations distort the informative content of the original text and give rise to different interpretations. The study’s implication is to draw attention to the importance of translational content of public signs as it serves as a medium of communication and reflects the image of linguistic cityscape.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The present study attempted to investigate Schjoldager's (2008) taxonomy of translation microstrategies applied by the translator for translating "Donald Trump’s Executive Orders." This led to determine the most/least microstrategies and translation macrostrategy employed by the translator as well as his success in producing the TT and in fulfilling the skopos of the translation. To achieve this, 20 English versions of "Donald Trump’s Executive Orders" were chosen as the sample of analysis and compared with their Persian translations. As the results indicated, among Schjoldager's translation microstrategies, the translator employed all 12 strategies. This includes direct transfer, calque, direct translation, oblique translation, explicitation, paraphrase, adaptation, addition, condensation, substitution, deletion, and permutation of which explicitation and direct transfer were the most/least used microstrategies. Based on the findings, TT-oriented strategies have been used more than ST-oriented ones. Thus, under the skopos theoretical approach, the translator was successful in translating "Donald Trump’s Executive Orders" and in fulfilling the skopos of the translation. This was because of that translations made by him were easy to understand to all types of TT readers. This study offers some helpful pedagogical implications to translation students and trainees, teachers, and those responsible for teaching students and training translators.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Qur'an Karim dan Terjemah Artinya published by Universitas Islam Indonesia (UII) Yogyakarta is one of the al-Qur'an translations in Indonesia. The work has characteristics that distinguish it from other translations. The translation tried to bring the meaning of Quranic verses ignoring literal meaning and looking for its equivalent in Bahasa Indonesia. This research is focusing on the verses of the creation of man with a question about the form and style of the translation of these verses. This study uses the theoretical framework of ḥarfiyyah and tafsīriyyah translation, as well as the theory of interpretation patterns in 'Ulūm al-Qur'ān. This study found that the translator uses two translation methods, the ḥarfīyyah, and tafsīriyyah translation methods. Sometimes a verse was translated with a shorter or longer Bahasa Indonesia sentence to clarify the meaning of the verse. The translation of the Qur'an is also considered as an interpretation in a limited version so that the translator has a style in translating the verse. The translation style used is the adabī-ijtimā'ī style with a language approach because the translator uses straightforward language in translating the verse.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This research aims at mapping out the translation techniques applied in translating sarcasm expressions and describing the impact of translation techniques toward the translation quality in terms of the accuracy aspect. This descriptive qualitative research used documents (i.e. subtitle of television series The Big Bang Theory and its translation in bahasa Indonesia) and informant (i.e. raters) as the data sources. To collect the data, the methods that were applied are document analysis and Focus Group Discussion (FGD). As a result, there are 15 translation techniques applied by the translator in translating the sarcasm expressions. The application of appropriate translation techniques extremely affects the translation quality. The translator tends to apply established equivalent in dealing with sarcasm expressions. Consequently, the sarcasm expression translations tend to be rendered accurately. Meanwhile, reduction, discursive creation, literal techniques tend to produce less accurate and inaccurate translation.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
In December 2010, the National Post published an article discussing the rather costly enterprise of state-sanctioned official bilingualism in Canada. According to statistics provided by the Fraser Institute (2006), translation and interpretation represented 15% of the total federal government budget spending allocated to bilingualism, a cost that many Canadian commentators deemed “unnecessary.” Shifting demographics and diverse immigration flows (Census data, 2011) are also having a significant impact on Canada’s linguistic landscape, forcing policy-makers to consider whether the Official Languages Act (and thus translation) would benefit from innovative reform. Using this contextual backdrop as its main impetus, this dissertation argues that translation, as defined and practiced in Canada, needs to be broadened for a number of reasons, including accounting for technological advancements, for the increasingly web-based dissemination of translated materials, and for the reality of evolving markets. Tymoczko (2008) has championed *translation as an open-cluster concept, a theoretical perspective that has found resonance in this project, given that the notion is the central premise upon which three additional conceptualizations (i.e. *translation sub-types) are founded. The first sub-type, intersemiotic translation, is explained at length and constitutes the focal point of the project. Instead of using a Peircean approach, the dissertation develops a model based on visual social semiotics in order to facilitate the application of intersemiotic translation in not only professional settings but research contexts as well. The second sub-type, cultural translation, builds on insights from the 1980s and 90s cultural turn, with a specific focus on the relationship between the representation of Canadian micro-cultures and intersemiotic translation. In other words, the effects of these translation processes will also be analyzed. Finally, civic translation is proposed as a third *translation sub-type, which offers a potential framework for multicultural management in democratic countries facing the challenges of globalization. A case study using content from the 2006-2008 debate surrounding reasonable accommodation—with specific attention given to the activities of the Consultation Commission on Accommodation Practices Related to Cultural Differences (also known as the Bouchard-Taylor Commission)—is woven through each chapter, illustrating all three sub-types of *translation. The case study provides compelling examples of why translation practices in Canada should move beyond verbal and state-sanctioned definitions. The novelty and contribution of this research project are manifold: it transcends traditional verbocentric approaches in TS; it responds to other scholars’ claims that there is a lack of case studies that involve text-image relationships and/or explore the role of translation in the news media in a Canadian context; it explores multimodality and its significance for TS in an era of increased Web presence; it showcases a Canadian case study; and, finally, it explores cultural representation through a translation-based framework.

Wallis, Julian. "Interactive translation vs pre-translation in the context of translation memory systems: Investigating the effects of translation method on productivity, quality and translator satisfaction". Thesis, University of Ottawa (Canada), 2006. http://hdl.handle.net/10393/27425.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Translation Memory (TM) systems are currently among the most popular translation tools available on the market. Clients today are looking for productivity and quality, but at the same time are looking to reduce costs. A TM stores portions of previously translated texts in a database so that they can be reused in new texts.
There are two ways of working with a TM: interactive mode and pre-translation mode. In interactive mode, the TM system offers proposals to the translator, who can choose to accept and adapt them, or refuse them and translate from scratch. In pre-translation mode, the TM system's proposals are automatically inserted into the new source text, producing a hybrid text containing a mixture of source and target language elements. The translator's job is then to verify the translation of the automatically replaced portions of text, as well as to translate any text that was left in the source language.
As the demand for translation continues to rise, more and more translators are looking to TMs to help increase productivity; however, for a variety of reasons, such as cost and incompatible file formats, they do not always have access to a useful TM. Therefore, translators need access to the TM database of the client they are working for in order to complete their translations. However, clients are increasingly hesitant to give out their databases due to proprietary issues. For this reason, many clients are turning to the pre-translation option so that they can get their translations done without having to give out their TM databases. To date, however, no one has yet studied whether the choice of pre-translation vs. interactive translation has an effect on productivity, quality and translator satisfaction. This thesis aims to go some way towards filling this gap by designing and testing a methodology to compare these two methods of working with a TM system.
The thesis is divided into three main parts. Part I provides background information on TMs through a literature survey, the findings of which form the basis for three hypotheses concerning the ways in which interactive and pre-translation will impact translation productivity and quality, as well as translator satisfaction. Part II describes an experiment that was designed and conducted to investigate these hypotheses. Finally, Part III evaluates the research carried out in this thesis and suggests possible ways to expand it in the future.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Theatre translation theory has for some time been destabilised, particularly in relation to the role of the theatre translator, by the undefined notion of 'performability', a concept which suggests that the linguistic choices of the translator can render the script inherently performable or unperformable in the semiotic system of performance. Nevertheless, practitioners, in the current 'dramaturgical turn', are now demonstrating a heightened dramaturgical consciousness, documenting their practice as research in some cases, and what they perceive to be their dramaturgical choices and restitution in the translation process. However, developments in hermeneutics and semiotics have refocused criticism from a text- centred to a reader-centred analysis, meaning that the intentions of the translator, as new author, are no less subject to re-interpretation. Therefore, until we can unequivocally state that these dramaturgical choices are realised in the mise en scene by the other authors of performance - director, actors and technicians - theory, and notions of the role of the theatre translator, will remain at an impasse. This practice-based research seeks to engage with this impasse by exploring my own dramaturgical consciousness from a documentation of my interpretation of Plautus' Casina, to the linguistic decisions employed to encode this interpretation, and, finally, to the production process itself where these choices are tested and developed through various rehearsals, a rehearsed-reading, and audience and practitioner feedback. By tracing these developments to determine where the script influences the creation of signs in the final mise en scene, and the relationship between the verbal and non-verbal, this thesis argues that translating for performance requires a performative and dramaturgical, rather than a simply textual or historical, re-working of the source text - thus meaning a script can be made performable - and offers a model of translation, extending existing models, to encompass the specific requirements of writing for theatre.

Thesis (PhD)--Stellenbosch University, 2014.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Most Afrikaans novels that are translated into French are piggyback or relay translations, which means translations of translations. Although piggyback translations have been done since the earliest times and are still being done, they are at best seen as a necessary evil and little research is done on this phenomenon – in fact so little that there is not even a uniform term among scholars to refer to this practice. Translation is the ideal space for different cultures to meet and interact, especially when the translation strategy is to foreignise by retaining cultural elements form the source culture in the translated text. Each translation is however adapted to a certain extent to its own target culture in order for the target public to have a better understanding of the text. When a translator works directly with the source text, he is in control about the way in which cultural references will be conveyed and explained to the target public. In the case of a piggyback translation the translator has to translate a “source text” that has already been adapted, or not, for a specific target public. The piggyback translator has to deal with a text where some cultural references might have been retained and others not. If the piggyback translator has no first-hand knowledge of the source culture, it means that he will not be able to distinguish which references have been adapted, nor to what extent they have been adapted. This study is an investigation into the French translations of two novels by Etienne van Heerden, namely Toorberg and Die swye van Mario Salviati. Le Domaine de Toorberg is a piggyback translation of Toorberg and Un long silence has been translated directly from the Afrikaans source text. The aim is to determine in which of the two French translations cultural transfer was the most successful. In translation studies great emphasis is placed on the fact that translators should not only be bilingual, but also bicultural, which means that the translator should understand both source and target cultures. In the case of the direct translation investigated here, the translator is not only bilingual, but he shows a South African and French biculturality. In the case of the piggyback translation however, the translator’s cultures are French and North American. This means that the piggyback translator has no first-hand knowledge of the source culture with the result that the cultural references are unknown to her. I hope to determine through this study whether piggyback translations are a viable method to present Afrikaans novels to (in this case) French readers and if not, whether alternative methods should be investigated, for example using translators who do not necessarily translate into their first language, as often suggested in translation studies.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die meeste Afrikaanse romans wat in Frans vertaal word, is abbavertalings, dit wil sê, vertalings van vertalings. Alhoewel abbavertalings reeds vanaf die vroegste tye gedoen word en steeds gedoen word, word dit ten beste gesien as ʼn onvermydelike euwel en daar word min navorsing oor hierdie verskynsel gedoen – so min dat daar nie eens onder teoretici ʼn eenvormige term bestaan om daarna te verwys nie. Vertaling is ʼn ideale ruimte waar verskillende kulture mekaar kan leer ken, veral wanneer daar vervreemdend vertaal word en kulturele elemente van die bronkultuur in die vertaling behou word. Elke vertaling word egter tot ʼn mindere of meerdere mate aangepas vir sy eie doelkultuur sodat die teikenpubliek die teks beter kan begryp. Wanneer ʼn vertaler direk met die bronteks self werk, het hy beheer oor die manier waarop kulturele referente oorgedra en verduidelik gaan word aan die teikenpubliek. In die geval van ʼn abbavertaling moet die vertaler egter ʼn “bronteks” vertaal wat reeds aangepas is vir ʼn spesifieke teikenpubliek, wat kulturele ooreenkomste toon met sy eie teikenpubliek, of nie. Die abbavertaler het dus te doen met ʼn reeds aangepaste teks waarin sommige kulturele referente behou is en ander nie. Indien die abbavertaler geen eerstehandse kennis het van die bronkultuur nie, beteken dit dat hy nie kan onderskei watter referente aangepas is nie, en ook nie tot watter mate hierdie referente aangepas is nie. In hierdie studie word ondersoek ingestel na die Franse vertalings van twee romans van Etienne van Heerden, naamlik Toorberg en Die swye van Mario Salviati. Le Domaine de Toorberg is ʼn abbavertaling uit die Engelse vertaling van Toorberg en Un long silence is direk uit die Afrikaanse bronteks vertaal. Die doel is om vas te stel in watter een van die twee Franse vertalings kulturele oordrag die suksesvolste plaasgevind het. In vertaalteorie word daar deesdae klem gelê op die feit dat vertalers nie net tweetalig moet wees nie, maar ook bikultureel, dit wil sê die vertaler moet die bron- sowel as doelkultuur verstaan. In die geval van die direkte vertaling wat in hierdie studie bestudeer is, is die vertaler nie net tweetalig nie, maar hy het ook ʼn Suid-Afrikaanse en Franse bikulturalteit, maar in die geval van die abbavertaling het die vertaler ʼn Franse en Noord-Amerikaanse kultuurkombinasie. Dit beteken dat die abbavertaler geen eerstehandse kennis dra van die bronkultuur nie met die gevolg dat die kulturele referente vir haar vreemd is. Ek hoop om deur hierdie studie vas te stel of abbavertalings wel ʼn lewensvatbare metode is om Afrikaanse romans (in hierdie geval) aan ʼn Franse leserspubliek bekend te stel, en indien nie, daar alternatiewe metodes is wat ondersoek behoort te word, byvoorbeeld deur vertalers te gebruik wat nie noodwendig, soos die vertaalteorie meestal voorskryf, in hulle eerste taal vertaal nie.

Panizzon, Raffaella. "Acquiring Translation Competence through the Use of Subtitling. Enhancing Language Learning through Translation and Translating". Doctoral thesis, Università degli studi di Padova, 2013. http://hdl.handle.net/11577/3423627.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The research work presented here is the result of two interconnected factors: on the one hand the results of a preliminary study on the skills of students of the degree courses “Mediazione Linguistica e Culturale” [Linguistic and Cultural Mediation] and “Lingue, Letterature e Culture Moderne” [Modern Languages, Literature and Cultures] to analyse and assess the translation of audiovisual products and on the other hand the analysis of the most recent literature on language learning and audiovisual material, in particular interlingual subtitling. The first shows that the competences acquired during the three years of study do not always guarantee satisfying language and translation skills – in particular, a rather literal approach to texts persists –; while the second presents encouraging results on the use of subtitling in foreign language teaching, although the studies conducted so far are few and on small samples. Hence, the need for students to abandon their word-for-word approach and the intrinsic characteristics of interlingual subtitling and of audiovisual texts (i.e. the time and space constraints imposed on the text) are the starting point of this dissertation.
Although the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) acknowledges translation as part of the activities necessary to language learning, its status is not yet clear since it is sometimes included in reception and production skills. The lack of specific descriptors then, makes the role played by translation in language learning still uncertain.
To this end a methodology based on the use of two pieces of software was designed and implemented, namely LvS 2.5.2 a subtitling simulator for didactic purposes and Translog 2006 that allows to record all cursor movements and keystrokes. The first was used to analyse the processes and products of the translation of audiovisual texts, while the latter to create subtitles from English to Italian. One of the innovative aspects of this project lies precisely in the combination of these two pieces of software for the survey and development of language and translation competence for English L2 learners.
The first stage of this investigation consisted in a pilot study with 18 volunteers of the third year of the degree course “Mediazione Linguistica e Culturale” over three lessons. The main purpose of the pilot study was to test students' reactions to the use of LvS and Translog and improve the methodology, as well as the quality of the learning material. This provided us with positive reactions on the part of students and with preliminary data on translation processes that proved helpful to the trial. The most striking datum found is that around 40% of the students observed do not read the text before translating, with negative consequences on the working speed and quality of their translations.
The trial had a larger sample of students (27) and took place over a period of about two months (10 lessons). Students underwent an initial profiling activity, so that their translation style and initial competence and were instructed on how to use LvS and Translog. The activities carried out during the trial were structured according to the main stages of the translation process (orientation, drafting and end-revision). Therefore, every lesson would entail three stages: a group watching of the material and students' comments on the content and possible translation problems, then the translation with Translog and a transposition on LvS, and finally a group discussion with students' proposals. The material was administered on the basis of the learner-centred approach in which the teacher was a mere facilitator and encouraged a critical dialogue among students as much as possible rather than impose her own perspective.
The definition of competence the study and the analysis refer to is that proposed by the PACTE group (“the underlying system of knowledge required to translate”). The audiovisual texts propose to students were selected on the basis of a number of “Rich Points”, which were then the specific object of the qualitative and quantitative analysis. Special attention was paid to the three basic stages of the translation process and their evolution, the duration of pauses, number of re-elaborations and the quality of the solutions of Rich Points. Moreover, the trial group's translation performance was compared to that of a control group to allow better data validation.
The results of the study have contributed to gather precious information on learners' translation style and techniques and seem to encourage the use of this practice in foreign language teaching through the analysis and translation of audiovisual material. In fact, the trial group outperformed the control group both as far as the general approach to translation is concerned and specific problems considered representative of the most common translation difficulties.Il progetto di ricerca presentato di seguito è il risultato dell'incontro di due fattori interconnessi: da un lato i risultati di uno studio preliminare sulla capacità degli studenti dei corsi di laurea “Mediazione Linguistica e Culturale” e “Lingue, Letterature e Culture Moderne” di analizzare e valutare la traduzione di prodotti audiovisivi, e dall'altro l'analisi della letteratura più recente in materia di apprendimento linguistico e audiovisivi, in particolare del sottotitolaggio interlinguistico attivo. Dal primo risulta che le competenze acquisite nell'arco del triennio non sono sempre sufficienti a garantire abilità linguistiche e traduttive soddisfacenti, in particolare persiste un approccio quasi letterale al testo, mentre dalla seconda emergono risultati incoraggianti (anche se gli studi condotti finora sono pochi e su campioni limitati) riguardo l'uso del sottotitolaggio nella didattica delle lingue straniere. La necessità quindi di allontanare gli studenti dall'approccio parola per parola da un lato e le caratteristiche intrinseche al sottotitolaggio interlinguistico (cioè le limitazioni di tempo e spazio a cui il testo deve sottostare) nonchè al testo audiovisivo in generale dall'altro sono il punto di partenza di questa tesi. Anche se nel Quadro Comune Europeo di Riferimento (QCER) la traduzione è riconosciuta come parte integrante delle attività necessarie all'apprendimento linguistico, il suo status non appare ancora del tutto chiaro poichè questa viene volte inclusa nelle abilità di ricezione e produzione. La mancanza di specifici descrittori, poi, contribuisce a lasciare nell'incertezza il ruolo della traduzione nell'apprendimento linguistico. A tale scopo è stata elaborata e implementata una metodologia basata sull'utilizzo di due software: LvS 2.5.2, un simulatore di sottotitoli creato a scopi didattici e Translog 2006, che permette di registrare tutti i movimenti effettuati dal cursore e le battute della tastiera di un computer. Il primo è stato utilizzato per l'analisi sia dei processi che dei prodotti risultanti dalla traduzione di testi audiovisivi, mentre il secondo per la creazione di sottotitoli dall'inglese all'italiano. Uno degli aspetti innovativi del progetto sta proprio nella combinazione di questi due software per l'esplorazione e lo sviluppo della competenza linguistico/traduttiva di apprendenti di lingua inglese L2. La prima fase di sperimentazione è consistita in uno studio pilota con 18 volontari frequentanti il terzo anno del corso di laurea “Mediazione Linguistica e Culturale” della durata di 3 lezioni. Lo scopo principale era quello di testare le reazioni degli studenti all'utilizzo dei due software e affinare la metodologia, nonchè la qualità del materiale didattico. Questo ha permesso di ottenere risposte positive da parte degli studenti e anche dati preliminari utili alla sperimentazione successiva riguardanti i processi di traduzione. Il dato più significativo emerso è che circa il 40% degli studenti osservati non legge il testo prima di tradurlo, con conseguenze negative sulla velocità di esecuzione e la qualità delle traduzioni. Lo studio principale si è tenuto con un campione di studenti più ampio (27) su un periodo di circa due mesi (10 lezioni). Gli studenti sono stati sottoposti ad un'attività iniziale di profiling in modo da individuarne lo stile traduttivo e la competenza di partenza e sono stati introdotti all'uso dei software. Le attività proposte durante il corso sono state strutturate in fasi che rispecchiano quelle del processo di traduzione (orientamento, elaborazione e revisione). Perciò ogni lezione consisteva in una fase di visione collettiva del materiale audiovisivo e di commento da parte degli studenti riguardo al contenuto e ai possibili problemi di traduzione, in una fase di traduzione con Translog e di trasposizione su LvS e infine una fase di discussione di gruppo delle soluzioni proposte. Il materiale è stato somministrato sulla base del learner-centred approach, in cui l'insegnante aveva un ruolo di facilitatrice e incoraggiando il più possibile il dialogo critico tra studenti piuttosto che imporre il proprio punto di vista. La definizione di competenza di riferimento per lo studio e l'analisi è quella proposta dal gruppo PACTE (“the underlying system of knowledge required to translate”). I testi audiovisivi proposti agli studenti sono stati selezionati considerando una serie di “Rich Points”, che hanno costituito poi l'oggetto specifico dell'analisi quantitativa e qualitativa. E' stata posta particolare attenzione alla durata delle tre fasi fondamentali del processo traduttivo e la loro evoluzione, alla durata delle pause, al numero di rielaborazioni e alla qualità della resa finale dei Rich Points. Inoltre la performance traduttiva del gruppo sperimentale è stata confrontata con quella di un gruppo di controllo per una migliore validazione dei dati. I risultati ottenuti dallo studio hanno contribuito a fornire preziose informazioni riguardo allo stile e alle tecniche di traduzione degli apprendenti e sembrano incoraggiare l'utilizzo di questa pratica nell'insegnamento delle lingue straniere attraverso l'analisi e la traduzione di materiale audiovisivo. Sono infatti stati riscontrati miglioramenti rispetto al gruppo di controllo sia nell'approccio alla traduzione in generale che a specifici problemi considerati rappresentativi delle difficoltà più diffuse in traduzione.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This research uses the framework of information economics to analyze the translation profession and translator certification. The translation market is found to be heterogeneous and fragmented and both buyers and sellers frequently enter and exit the market. The recruiters seeking translators surveyed believe translator certification can enhance the overall image of the translation profession but increased monetary benefits might be minimal.
There are two reasons why currently translator certification systems do not function effectively as a signal. First, because of
"counter-signaling", high-quality translators may have less incentive to use certification because signaling behavior may mark them down as mediocre translators. Second, due to "signal-jamming", vocational master's degrees in Translation are likely to compete with translator certification as a signaling device, and employers find it difficult to make inference about job applicants' employability from these two credentials.As recommendations, professional translator associations, translator
training institutions and others need to collaborate in developing multilateral signaling devices as well as provide translators with the
required knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary for them to thrive in the
ever-changing translation market.
Esta investigación utiliza el marco teórico de la economía de la información para analizar la profesión de la traducción. Concretamente, se utilizan los conceptos económicos de información asimétrica y selección adversa. La información asimétrica implica dos o más agentes económicos, entre los que uno de ellos tiene mejor información que el resto. Aplicado al mercado de la traducción, analiza la situación en que los compradores de servicios de traducción necesitan reclutar nuevos traductores para su trabajo, pero no pueden distinguir con eficacia entre un "buen" traductor y uno "malo". Se ofrecen las siguientes recomendaciones para consolidar el efecto referencial del sistema de certificación del traductor: una coordinación más cercana entre los sistemas de certificación y las organizaciones profesionales en diversos países o regiones; una mejor aplicación de códigos profesionales y de regulación de la conducta; desarrollo de un reciclaje continuo que mantenga a los traductores al día de la realidad cambiante de la profesión. Pero sobre todo, es necesario que las asociaciones profesionales de traductores, las instituciones formativas y otros implicados, trabajen juntos en el desarrollo de mecanismos multilaterales de referencia que puedan cubrir las demandas de contratantes y clientes, a la vez que proporcionan a los traductores el conocimiento, habilidades y actitudes requeridas para su supervivencia y prosperidad en el complejo y variable mercado de la traducción.

Professional translators employ different kinds of electronic tools in order to achieve increased levels of productivity and quality. The two most prominent of such tools are translation memories and, more recently, machine translation. This thesis investigates how the functioning of translation tools and specific aspects of their graphical user interfaces affect translators’ performance. The study was carried out through an experiment with ten professional translators working from English into Spanish in the domain of software localisation. It was found that translation metadata – a set of meta-information elements provided by the tools about the translation suggestions – affect performance indicators such as speed, quality and typing effort. It was also found that translators spend more time thinking about how to translate a segment than actually typing or making edits to the suggested translations. The results of this study can help identify more efficient workflows, with benefits in terms of costs and quality for translators and their clients. The findings can also help understand the cognitive processes behind the translating activity and contribute to the development of tools that are more efficient and ergonomic, with a view to increasing job satisfaction.

This ground-breaking volume on early modern inter-Asian translation examines how translation from plain Chinese was situated at the nexus between, on the one hand, the traditional standard of biliteracy characteristic of literary practices in the Sinographic sphere, and on the other, practices of translational multilingualism (competence in multiple spoken languages to produce a fully localized target text). Translations from plain Chinese are shown to carve out new ecologies of translations that not only enrich our understanding of early modern translation practices across the Sinographic sphere, but also demonstrate that the transregional uses of a non-alphabetic graphic technology call for different models of translation theory.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This chapter presents an empirical study conducted in foreign language classes and in translator training classes (Spanish–German). The main aim of the study was twofold: (1) to show whether methods used in translation classes could be used in foreign language classes to enhance foreign language competence; and (2) to show whether, and if so how, translation competence could be enhanced by using action-oriented methods in translator training classes. So, instead of beginning class by analysing the source text’s features and then translating the source text right away, students first discussed the topics and culture-specific items mentioned in the source text. The resulting translations based on the respective action-oriented translator training classes were also better than those of students who attended “traditional” translation classes.

AbstractThis chapter analyses translations as cultural objects that circulate between languages and movement cultures. It takes the case of an English novel of the 1880s and its (partial) translation into German as a starting point to explore the milieus, dynamics, and practices of transcultural mediation between European women’s movements of the late nineteenth century. Tying in with the concept of ‘activist translation’, it compares translation as a form of political intervention with translating as a professional practice. It submits that to analyse the political and social contexts in which a text is translated as well as its relation to other, accompanying forms of transfer is a prerequisite to understanding the character and the rationale of a specific translation.

AbstractThis paper presents and analyses the approach of the Welsh recusant author and translator Robert Gwyn (c.1545–c.1600) to the translation of quotations from the Bible and the Church Fathers as it is reflected in both his paratextual comments on translating and in regularities of his translational practice. Gwyn locates his literary work in the larger context of Counter-Reformation activities in Wales for an “unlearned” audience and therefore forcefully argues for the primacy of comprehensibility over strict adherence to the words of the source text. A brief detour for the purpose of contextualization looks at the paratexts of other contemporaneous Catholic and Protestant Welsh translators and at their aims in relation to their projected audiences. Since English loanwords were a feature of spoken Welsh and their use in translations was explicitly vindicated by Gwyn, lexical choices in a range of his versions of Biblical verses are compared with the translation of the same verses in the Protestant Welsh translations of the New Testament dating between 1567 and 1588.

Chapter Five, ‘Translation for Everyone: Collaborative Saudi Publishing Projects in Foreign Languages’, explores individual and private publishing projects in Saudi Arabia, past and present. These range from standalone, one-off translations such as ‘Saheeh International’, one of the most widely distributed Qur’an translations in the English-speaking Muslim world; to those produced by commercial publishing projects such as Darussalam, which publishes in a range of languages; to missionary initiatives such as the Tafsīr al-ʿUshr al-Akhīr project. Additionally, the chapter discusses some examples of how digitisation in the field of Islamic sources is changing the face of translation, rendering the translator less visible and promoting the production of a kind of multi-language translation which aims to provide the same reading and interpretation in every language.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
AbstractThe semantic field denoted by the two terms ‘policy’/‘politics’ of translation is of central importance because it allows us to focus on two complexes: 1. translation policy in the sense of translational norms and thus the question of the socio-cultural, economic and intercultural conditions that are responsible for the fact that translation takes place and in what form; and 2. the role of translation in the context of political processes of negotiation. Heuristically, three aspects of the political are thus of interest: cultural norms and criteria that decide on the fact and the type of translation (cultural filters); political, religious or economic interests that are linked to translations (calculation) and the significance of translations for all forms of interaction in the political sphere in the narrower sense (diplomacy).

The chapter discusses overarching issues of the cross-disciplinary debate on how translations and participation interrelate. Emphasizing the nuanced simultaneity of forging common ground while preserving distinctions that are typical for translational practices, we delve into the implications for participation dynamics. The demand for both precision and creativity in translating content for specific audiences and contexts emerges as a crucial factor in facilitating a successful involvement. We posit that translational practices are inherently political, as each translation involves decisions regarding the different social contexts, expectations of participants, and the conditions under which participation occurs.

AbstractThis article investigates how religions are based on the process of translating religious concepts and practices, and how different translations have brought about different understandings and representations of religions in the past and may continue to do so in the present. Proceeding from the notion that the construction of religions is based on a constant process of translation, the focus of the analysis is on the translation process itself. I examine the translation of religious concepts and practices in the missionary context of South India in the sixteenth century, employing “cultural translation” as an analytical tool. In order to analyze the translation process, I apply a theoretical ‘tool kit’—a combination of theories from different translation studies, to a pivotal source, Roberto Nobili’s (1577–1656) Informatio. This Latin treaty was composed for the purpose of translating and accommodating the Tamil Sanskrit Brahmanism of South India so as to explain it to a Latin-speaking Roman audience.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The empirical line of reception studies has staked out new research questions regarding the effects of translation on actual readers. Nevertheless, the underlying mechanisms of how the translated text flows towards and is received by the target reader remain elusive, notably with respect to attempts to rationalise the individual reader’s decision-making in compromising situations. Drawing on empirical evidence from a quasi-experiment in which a group of 22 readers in Australia responded to various translations of Chinese foreign affairs discourses, this chapter illustrates how a nonlinear trade-off model serves to explain the reader’s ultimate judgements in which linguistic and ethical considerations are weighed against each other. It is found that a pair of two incompatible but desirable expectations is (un)consciously calculated by the reader. The extent to which the translation can be accepted is susceptible to the degree to which the reader trusts the translator.

The article discusses current problems of ecotranslation studies. The authors attempt to correlate various research directions from the standpoint of an ecocentric approach to justify the necessity of studying and creating a portrait of the translator as an equal participant in an ecological material and spiritual environment within which they carry out their professional activities. This perspective enables the translator to achieve ecological balance and harmony between the original texts and translations, as well as among the recipients of interacting linguistic and cultural communities. The ecological aspect of translation is related to translational harmony as the axiological dominant of this process, with the translator’s speech personality serving as the leading discursive factor. Creating a portrait of the translator based on eco-translation studies not only reveals new facets of their personality but also unveils new possibilities in understanding the principles of translation.

The increasing production of diverse political texts due to rapid developments in international politics and social changes necessitates accurate and timely translation. Translation technology combined with AI is emerging as a powerful tool for translations, increasing productivity and ensuring consistency. This research focuses on the use of AI in translating political texts and explores the challenges it poses, particularly in the realm of political translation. The aim is to identify these challenges and develop effective strategies to address them. The research methodology involves analysing translations of German politicians' speeches into Greek using AI and evaluating their cultural adaptation, emotional impact, and persuasiveness. The study utilises machine translation evaluation tools and questionnaires to assess the benefits and risks of using AI in translation, with a specific focus on the democratisation of information and its potential impact on public opinion. The research aims to provide valuable insights for both trainees and professional translators. Keywords: artificial intelligence, political translation, bias.

Specialised translation includes technical and scientific translation as research fields in their own right, on account of method, text type, purpose of translating and degree of specialisation. Being a borderline case between technical and scientific translation, medical translation requires a multidisciplinary approach. Admittedly, the paper focuses on shedding light on the complexity of medical translation, the medical translator facing as main challenges a vast range of texts and formats (even within the same sub-field of medicine), non-standardised terminology (continuing to evolve as aligned to new scientific discoveries), a lack of relevant resources (most importantly, multilingual medical databases) and the different expectations of the intended users of translation.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Translation process is subject to many non-linguistic factors that clearly affect the course of the translation process and impose their logic on both the translator and the translation product. Perhaps newspaper headlines represent one of the textual models whose translation from one language to another is subject to such factors that interact and overlap with the translator’s skill and his linguistic knowledge that put their mark on his final product. The most prominent of these factors is the ideological orientations of the translator and his knowledge of the intellectual and cultural background of the audience to whom the translated text is intended. This paper aims to trace the impact of the translator’s ideological orientations and his knowledge of the requirements of translation clients and readers in differentiation between the Arabic and the English styles of translating newspaper headlines, by reviewing a group of newspaper headlines. It became clear from the study that translating newspaper headlines include a lot ideological influences that urge the translator to interfere in the text to achieve goals of an ideological nature, most notably meeting the needs of a specific audience of readers, and this ideological intervention led to the differentiation between the Arabic style and the English styles in translating newspaper headlines.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Translation theory and translation practice are in an attached relation. Translation theory plays a really important role in operating the process of translation. Different languages encode meaning in various forms, so mastering translation theory is able to to find appropriate ways of preserving meaning while using the most appropriate forms of each language. The paper aims to present some knowledge of translation involving translation in relation to linguistic theory, meaning in translation, equivalence in translation and translation strategies.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Taking advantage of computationally lightweight, but high-quality translators prompt consideration of new applications that address neglected languages. For projects with protected or personal data, translators for less popular or low-resource languages require specific compliance checks before posting to a public translation API. In these cases, locally run translators can render reasonable, cost-effective solutions if done with an army of offline, smallscale pair translators. Like handling a specialist’s dialect, this research illustrates translating two historically interesting, but obfuscated languages: 1) hacker-speak (“l33t”) and 2) reverse (or “mirror”) writing as practiced by Leonardo da Vinci. The work generalizes a deep learning architecture to translatable variants of hacker-speak with lite, medium, and hard vocabularies. The original contribution highlights a fluent translator of hacker-speak in under 50 megabytes and demonstrates a companion text generator for augmenting future datasets with greater than a million bilingual sentence pairs. A primary motivation stems from the need to understand and archive the evolution of the international computer community, one that continuously enhances their talent for speaking openly but in hidden contexts. This training of bilingual sentences supports deep learning models using a long short-term memory, recurrent neural network (LSTM-RNN). It extends previous work demonstrating an English-to-foreign translation service built from as little as 10,000 bilingual sentence pairs. This work further solves the equivalent translation problem in twenty-six additional (non-obfuscated) languages and rank orders those models and their proficiency quantitatively with Italian as the most successful and Mandarin Chinese as the most challenging. For neglected languages, the method prototypes novel services for smaller niche translations such as Kabyle (Algerian dialect) which covers between 5-7 million speakers but one which for most enterprise translators, has not yet reached development. One anticipates the extension of this approach to other important dialects, such as translating technical (medical or legal) jargon and processing health records or handling many of the dialects collected from specialized domains (mixed languages like “Spanglish”, acronym-laden Twitter feeds, or urban slang).

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
While cross-lingual manual and automatic fact-checking are important, and Machine Translation (MT) is among the methods, used for them, there are no orienting guidelines, nor evaluation metrics that could assist with determining which MT engine would be appropriate for such a task. This article presents an evaluation approach that fills a gap by providing a numerical estimate of Machine Translation (MT) engines’ suitability for translating texts for cross-lingual claim matching and fact-checking. The approach focuses on elements important for the task, such as the correct translation of Named Entities (NEs), while making others less important (for example the style and the fluency of the translations). Our contributions include an MT error classification, evaluation guidelines, formulas to obtain a normalized numerical score, and a Python script for calculating it. The numerical weights of the score’s components can be modified, which allows flexibility, reflecting what is possible for the subsequent stage. We also present the results of two experiments in which we apply our approach (with a choice of weights) and determine the most suitable freely accessible MT tools for translating Bulgarian and Romanian news articles and social media texts into English. Our results show that eTranslation is the best MT tool for Romanian-English translation direction, while the HuggingFace Helsinki Opus MT model is best for Bulgarian-English.

The article deals with the problem of translation of anthroponyms. Difficulties arising in the process of translation are analyzed. The analysis was based on the translation of the Narts Tales into the Russian language. The analysis revealed that translating anthroponyms in general and charactonym in particular translators do not always employ transcription or transliteration. It is a tough process which requires a wide range of strategies a translator has in his disposal.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The article deals with the problems of translating pseudo-international words in economic texts. Incorrect interpretations of pseudo-international words in written texts and oral translations are investigated. It is noted that errors in the written version appear mainly due to the use of the most common full-text translation services, where the word spelling is a priority. For oral translation, the first variant of incorrect interpretation is more typical, when the word is pronounced similarly to Russian, but is not its analogue. The paper presents the classification of pseudo-international words according to the parts of speech: noun, adjective, verb and adverb, and also provides typical mistakes that students make when translating this vocabulary. The authors of the article also present tasks that are the most effective way to overcome misinterpretations of words related to pseudo-internationalisms.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This article examines the specifics of the translation of irony in Margaret Mitchell’s novel “Gone with The Wind”. The relevance of the article lies in the problems of translating an artistic technique from English into Russian. The purpose of the article is to identify the definition of the term “irony” and ways to translate it based on the works of scientists. The research methodology consists of analyzing the techniques of translating quotations from the original text of the novel and its translation. As a result of the study, the most effective translation techniques were identified, such as: complete translation with minor lexical or grammatical transformations; antonymic translation; addition of semantic components; cultural and situational substitution. The specifics of the translation of irony in the text using transformation techniques were also determined, due to the special role of this literary technique in the context of the novel. The theoretical basis of this article is the classification of translation techniques by T. A. Kazakova. The conclusions of the study show which are the most effective translation techniques used in translating the artistic technique “irony” from English into Russian.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The current trends in the translator training are shown, which reflect the orientation towards the use of cloud-based automated translation systems. The possibilities of studying cloud-based translation systems in the educational process of training the translator are considered. The role of mastering modern translation tools for forming information competence of translators, particularly technological component, was described. The definition of the list and type of basic translation tools that should be mastered in the studying process was discussed. These tools should include automated translation systems and terminological management systems. It is advisable to provide for the study of both desktop and cloud-based systems. The inclusion in the content of the training translators the study of cloud-based systems of automated translation after desktop systems is proposed. A number of advantages of cloud-based translation systems for the use in the process of training the translators is defined and substantiated. A comparative analysis of the functional of cloud-based automated translation systems (Wordfast Anywhere, XTM Cloud, and MemSource) with the aim of including them in the content of the training program for translators has been carried out.

Peculiarities of translating romance novels are considered in the article. Examples from the novel by Kristan Higgins “Too good to be true” are given in order corresponding to their manifestation in the book. Special attention is given to the translation of realities. The main translation techniques used are transliteration and transcription, calquing, and combinations (concerning onomastic realities), descriptive translation and approximation (concerning everyday realities and associations). Besides, it is mentioned, that gender dimension is extremely pragmatically valid in the context of other stylistic and grammatical aspects of the text. The authors make a conclusion of dynamic changes in speech stereotypes towards blurring gender lines between masculine and feminine speech behavior. It is important to consider this fact when translating romance novels.
