Stylistic redundancy in research papers
We conducted research to identify structures that might be problematic in translation due to their being considered redundant if they were translated. These structures were studied in 30 randomly collected papers by Slovak scholars in the humanities field. The research aims to define the notion of stylistic redundancy in academic English, propose its notional paradigm and in doing so argue for its inclusion in translation issues. Based on the fin…
The encounter of two cultural identities
In contact with foreign environment, the encounter of two (or more) cultures is common in situations with an incompatible cultural aspect. A typical example is T-V distinction. In most languages, mainly European ones, conveying social deixis oscillates between two poles: T and V forms. Present-day English is the only mainstream language with the absence of morphological markers for conveying T/V relationships. The present research examines the co…

For the same reason, several typologies are available, like Newmark's typology has been generally accepted by experts in translation studies and translation pedagogy. Tomaszkiewiczs (1993) eight strategies are based on exploring …
