Re-opening the case: A corpus-based study of translational patterns using non-agentive constructions in translations from English to German
How does the variability of the language system affect translational language use? Despite inconclusive results of earlier corpus studies, machine learning approaches reach high accuracies in distinguishing translated from non-translated texts. Translations must therefore involve linguistic patterns easy to spot by computers, but harder to spot by the human analyst. Consequently, the differences have been characterized as small, but systematic. T…
Operationalizing grammatical metaphor
Nominal grammatical metaphor (NGM), as theorised within systemic functional linguistics (SFL), typically refers to cases where a process is ‘metaphorically’ encoded through nominal resources, rather than its typical encoding through the clause. Previous approaches to the study of NGM have generally relied on the concepts of agnation and congruence, but these concepts can be quite subjective in nature, leading to an unstable account of the phenome…
Ecological validity in corpus-based and experimental translation research
This study provides insights into the ecological validity of experimental results in translation process research (TPR) by comparing translation products under three different conditions: produced in a translation research lab, in the translators' usual working environment, and included as part of a corpus. The results will test the ecological validity of experimental results in TPR and shed light on some of the discrepancies between findings bas…
On the interaction between register variation and regional varieties in English
This paper examines the extent to which regional varieties of English influence register variation. Register is a key concept in systemic functional linguistics (SFL), whereas regional variation is rarely studied in this framework. However, languages like Chinese, Spanish and English are used in more than one region and such more complex language situations raise the question of whether registers are used consistently throughout. In this study, t…
Animacy and agentivity of Subject Themes in English-German translation
Cross-Linguistic Corpora for the Study of Translations: Insights from the Language Pair English-German
This book is a contribution to the study of translation as a contact variety, and - more generally - to language comparison and language contact with a focus on English and German. Methodologically, the contributors implement an empirical research strategy with further applications in computational linguistics and language technology.
