Interpreting Swearwords in Police Interviews and Perceived Offensiveness of Insults in the UK and Spain
Despite how damaging the consequences of an inadequate translation of swearwords might be, little attention has been paid to insults, in both academic research and interpreting training. The mistranslation of an insult can affect how the police officer perceives the severity of the punishable offence and makes a judgment about what kind of action is appropriate. This study includes two experiments. First, an interpreting experiment was carried ou…
La conceptualización metafórica y metonímica de las emociones: La IRA en el español de Colombia y de España
Este artículo examina cómo las lenguas codifican conceptos abstractos, como las emociones, mediante el razonamiento metafórico y metonímico, desde la perspectiva de la Lingüística Cognitiva. Adoptando la Teoría de la Metáfora y la Metonimia Conceptuales, con un enfoque especial en la motivación y la corporeización, esta investigación analiza cómo factores corporales y culturales pueden influir en la conceptualización de “la ira” en español.

Translating accurately or sounding natural: The interpreters’ challenges due to semantic typology and the interpreting process
Police interview interpreting is a complex task, as interpreters make difficult choices under pressure and time constraints. The main dilemma of the interpreter is whether to remain faithful to the original text, with the risk of rendering non-idiomatic translations, or to give preference to more idiomatic versions that may entail an addition or an omission from the original text. This article presents an analysis of Spanish-English bilingual pol…
Semantic Categorization of Placement Verbs in L1 and L2 Danish and Spanish
This study investigates sematic categorization of the meaning of placement verbs by Danish and Spanish native speakers and two groups of intermediate second language (L2) learners (Danish learners of L2 Spanish and Spanish learners of L2 Danish). Participants described 31 video clips picturing different types of placement events. Cluster analyses revealed considerable differences in the semantic categorization of these events in Danish and Spanis…
Las metáforas conceptuales como estrategias comunicativas y de aprendizaje: Una aplicación didáctica de la lingüística cognitiva
La competencia comunicativa (Hymes 1972) supuso un punto de inflexión en la investigación sobre adquisición de segundas lenguas. Entre las diferentes subcompetencias que un usuario de una segunda lengua debe utilizar, algunos autores como Canale y Swain (1983) han enfatizado el papel de la competencia estratégica. Ésta consiste en la habilidad del hablante para solucionar problemas en la comunicación. En un sentido más amplio, las estrategias del…
