分析阿拉伯语迂回表达在英文短篇小说中的翻译策略与挑战

The Translation of Circumlocution in Arabic Short Stories into English

  • 基于奈达理论,分析阿拉伯语迂回表达的翻译方法
  • 发现阿英两种语言的迂回表达功能高度相似
  • 指出译者常因语义细微差别而采用增删改策略

本研究考察了著名阿拉伯作家短篇小说中阿拉伯语迂回表达向英语翻译的实现情况。通过对比源语文本与目标语文本,识别并分类阿拉伯语中的迂回表达及其英文对应形式。研究以奈达(1964)翻译理论为框架,评估翻译策略的恰当性,探讨译者在再现阿拉伯语迂回表达时的成效与局限。结果表明,阿拉伯语迂回表达类别与英语元话语类别在文本功能和人际功能方面存在显著相似性。然而,研究亦揭示译者在传达迂回表达细微语义时面临困难,常采取添加、删减或替换等策略应对。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

This study investigates the translation of circumlocution from Arabic to English in a corpus of short stories by renowned Arabic authors. By analyzing the source and target texts, the study aims to identify and categorize circumlocution instances in Arabic and their corresponding renditions in English. The study employs Nida's (1964) translation theory as a framework to assess the appropriateness of the translation strategies employed. It examines the extent to which translators successfully rendered Arabic circumlocution into English, identifying potential challenges and limitations in the translation process. The findings reveal significant similarities between Arabic circumlocution categories and English metadiscourse categories, particularly in terms of textual and interpersonal functions. However, the study also highlights instances where translators encountered difficulties in accurately conveying the nuances of circumlocution, often resorting to strategies like addition, subtraction, and alteration.https://ntu.edu.iq/
