Trandix: Herramienta Proactiva para la Búsqueda Terminológica del Traductor y su Evaluación
2014
This article is the English version of “Trandix: herramienta proactiva para la búsqueda terminológica del traductor y su evaluación” by Isabel Durán Muñoz & Alejandro Fernández Sola. It was not published on the print version of MonTI for reasons of space. The online version of MonTI does not suffer from these limitations, and this is our way of promoting plurilingualism. This paper analyses current trends in the terminological field and translators’ needs regarding terminological resources. In this context, it presents the Trandix tool, a novel software application that intends to enhance efficiency in terminological searches conducted by translators. In addition to its main features, this …
Trandix: herramienta proactiva para la búsqueda terminológica del traductor y su evaluación
2014
This paper analyses current trends in the terminography field and translators’ needs regarding terminology resources. In this context, the Trandix tool is presented as a novel software application that pursues efficiency in terminological searches conducted by translators. This tool is based on Tarp’s Function Theory of Lexicography (2008a) and Spohr’s proposal concerning electronic multifunctional dictionaries (2009). A further goal of this paper is to serve as an example for future research in terminological resources aiming to meet translators’ requirements and expectations when carrying out terminology searches
Retrospection in interpreting and translation: explaining the process?
2014
Retrospection is one of the few research methods equally suitable for studying the processes involved in both translation and interpreting. At the first workshop on research methods in process-oriented research (Graz 2009), we presented the results of a pilot study of retrospection as a research method, published as Englund Dimitrova & Tiselius (2009). The study involved data from two groups (15 years of professional experience vs. no professional experience), each with 3+3 subjects (interpreter subjects vs. translator subjects, all with Swedish as their L1). The source text was a 10-minute plenary speech in English from the European Parliament, interpreted simultaneously into Swedish. …
Woman and translation: geographies, voices, identities
2011
In this article we wanted to reflect any of the numerous intersections that women and translation studies have generated. We have divided it into three parts: Geographies, Voices and Identities.
El gran reto de la traducción y la accesibilidad audiovisual en los medios de comunicación
2020
Nadie duda ya del importante papel que desempeña la accesibilidad, no solo en el seno de la traducción audiovisual (AVT), sino también dentro los Estudios de Traducción. La accesibilidad no deja de ser un concepto abierto, porque su objetivo último, el de la integración social y la eliminación de barreras de dependencia, debe reexaminarse continuamente en relación con las cambiantes circunstancias de nuestro entorno y, sobre todo, porque también se van modificando nuestras maneras de percibir las cosas. Se reevalúan y se descubren, de hecho, nuevas relaciones de dependencia que habían pasado desapercibidas a partir de un análisis crítico o una 'deconstrucción' de lo que muchas…
Estudio traductológico de los verbos sintagmáticos del italiano al castellano. El caso de Lessico Famigliare
2016
Los verbos sintagmáticos (VS) constituyen un fenómeno lingüístico muy productivo en la lengua italiana, en particular en los intercambios dialógicos más informales y espontáneos. Ante la parca productividad de dichos constructos en español, destacamos los recursos lingüísticos que se suelen emplear con más frecuencia en este idioma al traducir los VS italianos. Para ello, analizamos un corpus paralelo, basado en la obra Lessico famigliare de Natalia Ginzburg (1963) y su traducción al español. Tras detallar los VS que figuran en el texto origen, adoptamos un enfoque de tipo cognitivo para dilucidar las posibles causas de aparición de los patrones lingüísticos destacados en la traducción. Por…
Challenges of translation process research at the workplace
2014
Translation usually takes place at translators’ workplaces, yet much translation process research refers to data collected under controlled conditions such as the classroom or the lab. Pursuant with recent descriptions of translation as a situated activity comes the necessity of investigating that activity where and when it occurs. Many of the methods that have proved useful in the lab have also been applied in the field, and some of the challenges associated with investigating translation at the workplace are common to any kind of empirical translation research. However, certain workplace constraints present special challenges to everyone involved. Some solutions that were developed for a …
The Diccionario Inglés-Español de Contabilidad: Traducción and the Diccionario Inglés-Español de Contabilidad: Traducción de Frases y Expresiones: Tw…
2014
This paper focuses on the role dictionaries play in a translation situation. This role is analysed in terms of the tenets of the Function Theory of Lexicography, which proposes that users do not have needs in general but punctual needs in specific situations. For example, translators of accounting texts need insertable equivalents whose meanings and language behaviour are clearly described. Furthermore, translators also need contextual data on domain-specific consensual usage. The construction of the Accounting Dictionaries and Diccionarios de Contabilidad reveals that the Function Theory offers theoretical and practical solutions for constructing dictionaries that target user needs in a pr…
La didáctica de lenguas extranjeras en los estudios de Traducción e Interpretación. ¿Qué nos dice la investigación?
2020
[EN] The knowledge of both foreign and mother languages constitutes a core competence in translator and interpreter training, as professional translation cannot exist if this competence has not been previously consolidated. Nevertheless, research regarding the teaching and acquisition of foreign languages within Translation and Interpreting studies is extremely scarce and its practice frequently adheres to general pedagogical models which do not keep to the ultimate goal and main objectives that should lay down the foreground for this type of teaching. On this basis, this article aims to discuss the main literature derived from this field of expertise and offer a reflection on the teaching …
Translation and lexicography: a necessary dialogue
2014
Firstly, the fields of Translation and Lexicography are compared and their similarities and differences are brought to the fore. Later, a review of the (slightly scarce) literature on the topic shows that most of the work has focused on how translators use dictionaries, how useful they are, and which kinds of dictionaries are preferred, among other similar issues. It is highlighted that lexicographers show little interest in the field of translation, at least as a source for dictionary building. A few potential avenues of research are defined, which could be beneficial for translators and lexicographers alike. Se comparan en primer lugar los campos de la Traducción y de la Lexicografía, pon…
