Abstract:

Abstract This study analyses the translation of a technical guidebook in the subject field of hydropower generation. The aim is to identify and apply functional translation theories when translating general technical terms, industry terms and contract terms. The theoretical basis for the study consists of Eugene Nida’s and Vinay & Darbelnet’s models for translation as well as theories on terminology by Rune Ingo and Therésa Cabré. During the translation process, technical terms were identified and subsequently translated using one or more of the theories described. The result was then an

Abstract:

La traductologie fait depuis quelques années une entrée timide dans le Monde arabe et c’est notamment la traduction de la terminologie de cette discipline qui joue un rôle prépondérant à ce niveau-là. Or, s’il est parfois réussi, le passage terminologique se heurte souvent à des difficultés, voire des impasses. A travers l’analyse des termes arabes de la traductologie, c’est-à-dire à travers l’étude de leur construction, fonctionnement, circulation, évolution, etc., l’on peut d’une part, s’interroger sur le rapport parfois problématique de ces termes, et des idées qu’ils subsument, avec leurs

Abstract:

Translation Environment Tools (TEnTs) became popular in the early 1990s as a partial solution for coping with ever-increasing translation demands and the decreasing number of translators available. TEnTs allow the creation of repositories of legacy translations (translation memories) and terminology (integrated termbases) used to identify repetition in new source texts and provide alternate translations, thereby reducing the need to translate the same information twice. While awareness of the important role of terminology in translation and documentation management has been on the rise, little

Most organizations use an increasing number of domain- or organization-specific words and phrases. A translation process, whether human or automated, must also be able to accurately and efficiently use these specific multilingual terminology collections. However, comparatively little has been done to explore the use of vetted terminology as an input to machine translation (MT) for improved results. In fact, no single established process currently exists to integrate terminology into MT as a general practice, and especially no established process for neural machine translation (NMT) exists t

Apesar de a culinária ser tema constante de programas de TV, seções de jornais e revistas, livros de receitas e diversas outras publicações, ainda é pouco estudada no meio acadêmico. Normalmente desconsiderada como linguagem especializada, a área não é contemplada com grande oferta de materiais de referência, ainda mais escassos quando consideramos o par de línguas português-inglês. No que tange à culinária tipicamente brasileira, não há disponíveis no mercado materiais que abranjam termos e fraseologias que auxiliem tradutores e redatores da área na produção de textos em língua inglesa.

Abstract:

Observa-se uma tendência nos Estudos da Tradução de tentar estabelecer uma linha de separação precisa entre tradução literária e tradução especializada. Tal separação teria como principal fundamento o fato de a Terminologia, área de grande interface com a Tradução, ocupar-se somente do estudo de textos especializados. Na prática da tradução literária, realizada por tradutores, ou na pesquisa de textos literários traduzidos, feita por estudiosos, percebe-se, no entanto, que as terminologias fazem-se também presentes na literatura. Considerando, portanto, questões terminológicas que ultrapassam

Abstract:

<p>The following essay is an analysis of a translation from English into Swedish of two articles concerning tourism, travelling and the environment. The language of the articles is expressive and rich in metaphors, which evokes images in the mind of the reader. The translation was performed with the aim to transfer this effect into the translated texts and the aspects to be examined in the analysis were chosen with this in mind.One of the three aspects to be examined is the use of metaphors and how they are translated into Swedish. Many of the metaphors bear reference to travelling and the env

I denna uppsats undersöks om, och i så fall hur, man översätter könsneutralt på Europaparlamentet. Man kan översätta könsneutralt genom att till exempel skriva han eller hon, använda passiv eller plural. För att kunna undersöka hur man översätter könsneutralt, redogörs för vad genus och könsneutralt språk är, vilken roll genus spelar för denna typ av översättning, vilka olika genusaspekter som är viktiga för tyska och svenska, och terminologiska aspekter. Den teoretiska utgångspunkten bygger på feministisk lingvistisk och översättningsteoretisk litteratur som Simon, Thüne och Leonardi, Jobin o

Esta pesquisa de mestrado apresenta um estudo, baseado em corpus comparável, da terminologia da energia solar fotovoltaica (conversão direta da radiação solar em eletricidade) em português do Brasil e francês da França. A importância das novas tecnologias de obtenção de energia, a partir de fontes limpas e renováveis, tal como a energia solar fotovoltaica, leva à publicação de livros, manuais técnicos, catálogos, contratos, diferentes tipos de discurso nos quais se encontra a linguagem técnica da área. Esses textos especializados acabam chegando até o tradutor que, diante da tarefa de compreen

O objetivo desta pesquisa é elaborar uma proposta de glossário bilíngue (inglês - português) de colocações da hotelaria, voltado às necessidades do tradutor. Esta pesquisa justifica-se por abordar uma área técnica com grande volume de traduções e escassez de estudos terminológicos e por dar destaque a um elemento constitutivo e de alta incidência nas comunicações especializadas as colocações. Na base do fenômeno das colocações está o princípio de que a linguagem é padronizada e integra um sistema probabilístico, ou seja, tende a funcionar por meio de unidades pré-fabricadas convencionalizadas

Para tanto, delimitamos o corpus deste estudo e analisamos a passagem do científico ao popular, considerando o continuum entre parâmetros (do científico ao popular) e o continuum tipológico (gênero textual), que nos serviram de base para estabelecer o parâmetro das distâncias entre os níveis.

Notre thèse porte sur les dictionnaires juridiques et comment on peut les améliorer du point de vue du traducteur au sein des institutions européennes. Les dictionnaires juridiques existants sont lacunaires. On peut surtout leur faire grief de limiter la fonction de décodage par la pluralité des équivalents proposés et de sacrificier complètement celle d’encodage. C’est à partir de ce constat que nous avons voulu élaborer un lexique anglais-gaélique du droit de l’environnement de l’Union européenne pour mieux répondre aux besoins des traducteurs.
