This article discusses one of many possible strategies that translators use in rendering an idiom from a L1 to a L2, i.e. the verbatim or the literal translation. The points of view according to this strategy differ very much among the researchers: some treat them as semantic false friends. Based on the replies to a questionnaire that was handed out to 10 Romanian native speakers, one could state that the context in which the literal translation of a source-idiom is situated plays an important role for the understanding of the text. Beyond that, the translation of an idiom cannot be judged only by virtue of the denotative meaning – the pragmatic function of the translation as a whole is just as important. The questionnaire was compiled of literal translations of Swedish idioms into Romanian (from different translations of different novels). The article further discusses some of the text examples from this questionnaire and describes some of the phenomena related to idioms which hinder the so-called idiom-understanding and which probably led to misinterpretation and a failed literal translation.
In diesem Beitrag werden anhand eines Korpus von Paralleltexten deutscher und italienischer Reiseführer jeweils kulturspezifische stilistische Aspekte dieser Textsorte dargestellt. Reiseführer können beschrieben werden als heterogene, weitgehend gering standardisierte Großtextsorte, die aus vier Subtextsorten besteht (Orientierungstexte, Ratgebertexte, Besichtigungstexte, Hintergrundtexte) und gleichzeitig mehrere Funktionen erfüllt (informieren, werben, bewerten, instruieren usw.) (Fandrych/Thurmair 2011). Der kulturellen Vermittlung des Reiseziels kommt dabei traditionell eine wichtige Rolle zu, wobei die Darstellung und Konstruktion des Reiseziels gewöhnlich nicht allein durch sprachliche Mittel erfolgt, sondern auch mittels Bilder, die kognitiv schneller und wirkungsstärker rezipiert werden (Stöckl 2011). Die im Reiseführer enthaltene Auswahl von Informationen und die Art der Darstellung (das 'was' und 'wie' im Sinne von Fix/Poethe/Yos 2003) folgt dabei kulturspezifischen Diskurstraditionen. Der Beitrag basiert auf einem funktional-pragmatischen Ansatz, der es erlaubt, die Text-Bild-Relation in die textstilistische Analyse einzubeziehen.
This study aims to present the linguistic landscape of a transylvanian city, namely Mediaș, using the Linguistic Landscape method. It is investigated in which areas of the public space the languages of the historical national minorities are present. The corpus includes inscriptions from the public space that have been analysed and classified according to certain criteria.
The following analysis is based on a practical experience of translation and tries to offer a series of solutions to the problem posed by culture-specific elements known in German translation studies as „Realia”. The recent translation studies generally acknoledge the importance of maintaining certain culture-specific elements as such in the target text; Antoine Berman speaks about ethic versus ethnocentric translation. Several authors describe four possible solutions for dealing with culture-specific elements in translation in order to preserve to a certain degree the cultural identity of the target text. The translation of „Realia” belonging to the sphere of nationalsocialism raised a series of difficulties during the actual translation of Das Buch Hitler, a document which was put together for Stalin by soviet intelligence in the years following WW II. Three types of „Realia” were identified in the source text and treated as such in the translation, following the theoretical guidelines proposed by Markussen and Berman.
Lucrarea doreşte să realizeze o analiză succintă a diferenţelor dintre două traduceri reprezentative ale operei Faust de Johann Wolfgang Goethe în limba română, cea a lui Lucian Blaga şi cea a lui Ştefan Augustin Doinaş, luând ca „mostră” de text scena Noaptea din partea întâia a tragediei. Dat fiind că scena conţine o aglomerare relativ mare de noţiuni cu o încărcătură semantică semnificativă, lucrarea de faţă analizează elementele lexicale esenţiale la nivelul semantic al textului, verificând echivalenţa din versiunile în limba română.
This paper proposes to analyse contrastively the phraseological expressions which include proper names in German and Romanian languages and also, to interpret them as cultural elements that generate problems when trying to translate them. It is intended to establish equivalence relations between the onimical expressions of the two languages, suggesting, where it will be the case, the translation strategies.
Intermarriages in Transylvania are a topic that is still to little scientifically explored. Saxons and Romanians in Transylvania each married in their own circles in accordance with the times they lived.The Second World War, the establishment of communism, deportation and nationalization have changed relations between the Transylvanian Saxons and Romanians. The number of mixed marriages has begun to grow and cultural proximity has become real. Life in Communism has become a collective destiny. At the base of this study are 25 questionnaires filled in by people coming from mixed marriages. The following aspects were analyzed: the name and identity attributed thereto, spoken languages, confession, family life, identity positioning.
The subject of the present study represents the artistic personality of the German writer Mite Kremnitz (1852-1916), which takes into consideration both facets of her work, as a translator and as a novelist. On the one hand and as an author in her own right, Mite Kremnitz is the carrier of Romanian realities; on the other hand she has the merit of having been the first one to translate contemporary literature from Romanian into German.
