The following paper deals with the phenomenon of religious terminology in fiction. Katharina Beta’s novel Katharsis was analyzed with regard to the translation of the relevant lexical material into Czech language. The theoretical basis for the analysis was provided by works of both Czech and foreign linguists and translatologists.
Çeviri yaparken her iki dile, kültüre yeterince hâkim olmamak bir dizi çeviri hatalarına yol açabilir. Bu noktada kaynak ve erek dilde yeterli kelime hazinesine sahip olmanın yanı sıra kelimelerin kullanım alanlarını, kurallarını, edim bilimsel etkilerini, sözdizimsel kuralları vs. de iyi bilmek gerekir. Humboldt ve Saussure’ün dil hakkındaki düşüncelerinden etkilenen Trier’in ortaya attığı sözlüksel alan teorisinin metin anlama ve anlatma edinci kapsamında etkilerinin neler olabileceği ve çeviribilimin sözlüksel alan teorisinden nasıl yararlanabileceği konusu irdelenmeye çalışılacaktır. Trier’e (1973:5) göre bir sözcüğün anlaşılabilmesi için, sözlüksel alanın tamamının bilinmesi
gerekir ve ancak sözlüksel alana hâkim isek o sözcüğü doğru anlayabiliriz. Anlam sadece ve sadece sözlüksel alan sayesinde vardır. Sözlüksel alan yoksa anlam da yoktur. Anlatılmak istenen düşünceye veya olguya dair bir kelimenin belli bir dilde bulunmaması bu düşüncenin veya olgunun o dilde olmadığı anlamına gelmez. Hayata dair genel kültür bilgimize ve tecrübelerimize dayanarak bu yeni kavramı
anlayabiliriz.
‘Çeviribilim’ olarak adlandırılan araştırma alanında geride bırakılan son birkaç on yıla bakıldığında bilim ve kültürde yaşanan kimi olay ve gelişmelerin Almanya ve Avrupa merkezli ‘çeviri’ araştırmalarına yön verdiği söylenebilir. Bilişim konusundaki gelişmeler, eylem kuramının ve iletişimbilimin dönüşümü, işlevselciliğin yeniden yorumlanması; edimbilimin evrimi, bilişsel felsefedeki yeni gelişmeler, yeni bakış açılarını ortaya çıkarmıştır. Bu bakış açılarının birer sonucu olarak ‘çeviribilim’ olarak adlandırılan çeviri odaklı düşünmelerde yeni ağırlık noktaları ve buradan hareketle ‘kuram’ ya da ‘yaklaşım’ biçiminde ifade edilen çalışmalar oluşmuştur. Kuramcıların belli olgulara bakış açıları onların nesneye yaklaşım biçimlerini ve algılarını etkiler. Çeviri olgusuna dönük savlar ortaya koyan kuramcılara bakıldığında ‘olgular bütünü’ ya da ‘karmaşık olgu’ olarak değerlendirilebilecek bir olguya dair farklı yaklaşım ve tutum alışlardan söz edilmektedir. Bu noktada, karmaşık bir dünyayı temsil eden çok boyutlu bir olgu olarak ‘çeviri’nin kendine özgü niteliği, 90’lı yıllardan başlayarak günümüze kadar gelen süreçte, ‘çeviribilimin’ psikoloji alanı ile ilişkilendirilmesi sonucunu beraberinde getirmiştir. Bu çerçevede araştırmaların ilgisi, ‘çeviri gerçekliği’nde merkeze oturtulan ‘çevirmen’e yönelmiş, ‘çevirmen’in bir ürün olarak ‘çeviri’yi hangi tutum ve ruhsal duruma dayanarak ortaya koyduğuna ilişkin araştırma yönelimi önem kazanmıştır. “Belli koşullar altında bir çevirmeni belli bir çeviri çıktısına, diğer bir deyişle belli bir çeviri metne götüren olay örgüsü nedir?” ya da “çeviri sırasında hangi zihinsel işlemler gerçekleşiyor?” gibi sorulardan hareket eden yaklaşımların bir üst bakışla ele alınması bu çalışmanın ana konusunu oluşturmaktadır.
It has been observed from the intense discussions that the function and importance of translation in foreign language teaching have been going on since the second half of the last century. On the basis of these discussions, it has been understood, from numerous studies carried out about the subject that translation is used as a methodological means of developing language skills in foreign language teaching. Nevertheless, “Common European Framework of Reference for Languages” defines the function of translation in foreign language teaching over again and emphasizes that the translation skill is a “skill” that foreign language teachers should acquire. In spite of this fact, the changes in that subject have not been reflected in German Language Teacher Education Curriculum. Translation is still dealt with in its traditional form as teaching the grammatical rules and vocabulary in German language teaching. However, translation can be used as a multi-sided means which supports developing language skills and communication ability. Thus, with suitable exercises, translation can contribute to the development of the students’ communication skill. In this study, how translation lesson can be organized more effectively and productively in the teaching of German as a foreign language is dealt with by taking the views mentioned above into consideration.
The present study is about note taking techniques in consecutive translation and their application. In the beginning we analyzed in the relevant literature, consecutive interpretation among translation techniques, note taking, and the function and features of note taking in consecutive translation. Afterwards, we presented the problems that an interpreter might face in consecutive interpretation with concrete examples and provided possible methods and techniques to overcome these. Hereby, we emphasized that note taking techniques are an important feature to remember while translating and its function as a memory supporting tool. In the last section we discussed the roles of a consecutive interpreter and emphasized within this context the usage of the earlier mentioned note taking techniques (use of acronyms, signs, and symbols). Moreover we highlighted that each interpreter has to have his/her own techniques and improve these continuously.
Several phenomena associated with the differences in the performance of novice interpreters and semi-professionals have been discussed in the paper. Particular emphasis was placed on the occurrence of imported cognitive load which strongly influenced the performance of the subjects also in places where no intrinsic difficulty had been detected. Nevertheless, too little evidence was provided to establish a more detailed pattern of imported cognitive load, which was due to the limited number of participants in the study. It would be possible to obtain more detailed data and comments from the participants by means of interviews conducted individually with the participants. It would allow asking detailed questions to the participants, which might be a more reliable method than the immediate retrospective accounts. Moreover, in the present study such variables as gender differences, age differences and the possible influence of other foreign languages were not taken into account. Perhaps these variables might shed some light on the issue of the management of cognitive resources. Also, the corpus gathered for the present study may be used for the investigation of other aspects of the SI performance.
Translation is a very broad, complex and multi-faceted phenomenon, encompassing much more factors than it seems at first glance. It is not just copying the words from the original work while changing the language, but it consists of a careful selection of appropriate phrases and expressions, combining them together in a skillful way while taking into consideration numerous aspects, one of them being the text type. The purpose of this article is, therefore, to present various text typologies and text types, specify their implications for translators and determine the role of the correct recognition of text type in producing a successful translation. This will be done on the assumption that a text type is one of the basic factors that allow the translator to recognise the function and purpose of the text as well as the author's intention. Thus, depending on the nature of these, the translator will inevitably resort to different techniques and strategies in order to successfully render the source text. Therefore, identifying the text type also helps the translator to select the appropriate translation strategy.
This article will attempt to suggest translation procedures necessary to translate culturally bound items in the referential level of a literary work illustrated with examples from two novels: “The Bluest Eye” by Toni Morrison and “Vineland” by Thomas Pynchon. First, the article will include a general description of the referential level in literary works offering possible avenues of 285 its rendition, then and finally suggest a translation methodology and techniques together with practical examples of the theory at work.
Im Rahmen eines umfangreichen Projekts zu Übersetzungsmöglichkeiten der deutschen Modalverben ins Portugiesische – und nachdem wir schon den Fall sollen behandelt haben (siehe Hörster/Athayde/Carecho 2011) – stellen wir in dieser Studie einige wesentliche Ergebnisse unserer Untersuchung bezüglich des Modalverbs müssen dar. Ziel unserer Arbeit war nicht die semantische und pragmatische Beschreibung der einzelnen Modalverben, ein Thema, das immer wieder im Mittelpunkt der wissenschaftlichen Diskussion steht. Vielmehr war es unsere Absicht, einen Beitrag zur zweisprachigen Lexikografie, zur Fremdsprachendidaktik und vor allem zur Übersetzungsdidaktik zu leisten.
