LLM-Driven Translations of English Law Reports: When Translators Are Mediators
LLMs are largely applied in legal settings, as well as in legal translation. This paper wishes to explore the reliability and accuracy of the automatic translations of an extract of a law report sourced from the Corpus of Historical English Law Reports (CHELAR). To this aim, two translation tasks are performed: a first automatic translation from English into Italian, and a second machine back-translation into English of a post-edited version of t…

Politeness in Supreme Court decisions
This article aims at exploring the (im/)politeness strategies developed in Supreme Courts’ judgments and opinions. For this purpose, various politeness tokens ranging from sharedness markers and approximators to hedging devices and boosters are taken into account. Multi-words such as “you know”, “you see”, “I mean”, “I think”, “kind of” and “please” or “thank you” are analysed in three different corpora. The corpora considered are the following o…
Assessing the Quality of AI and MT in Legal Translation
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has made huge strides forward in the last few years and many AI-driven solutions have been developed to cater for the needs of legal professionals. Amongst its various applications, AI can be used to draft and translate documents. This paper wishes to assess the accuracy and reliability of the translation (from Italian into English) of an informative article on mortgage contracts. To do so, an MT-based platform (DeepL…

Volcanic experiences: Comparing non-corpus-based translations with corpus-based translations in translation training
Corpus-based translations are reported to be particularly effective for both students and professionals. This paper presents a case study with 15 Italian students enrolled in a bachelor program in translation studies. The students performed two tasks. During the first, they had to correct the shortcomings of a target text (in English) on volcano hiking. While correcting, they had to indicate the language tools used to correct the translation mist…
Learning ESL through AVT: A case study
This paper is aimed at providing instances of second language (L2) incidental learning by watching film excerpts. For this purpose, a case study was carried out with secondary school students, who were exposed to film sequences in both the original and dubbed versions. In this way, they could note instances of good and bad audiovisual (AVT) translations; they learnt expressions hallmarking spoken language; they tackled translation issues and prop…
Racial slurs in Italian film dubbing
This paper explores how racial slurs are dealt with in Anglo-American films and rendered in films dubbed in Italian. It focuses on the racist epithets ‘nigger’, ‘gook’ and ‘zipper head’ with a view to unveiling the linguistic choices made by Italian audiovisual translators. Furthermore, it supports the claim that taboo topics vary from culture to culture and sheds some light on self-censorship, which has allegedly shifted from sexual and religiou…
Are Dubbed Teen Films (still) Censored
The dubbing of teen films is claimed to be harshly censored and manipulated in view of the target audience.In particular, the teen films of the 1970s touching upon certain taboo topics, such as sex, drugsand violence are argued to be modified extensively in order to become less disturbing. The aim of thispaper is to explore whether these claims are still true, especially in view of recent films addressingsex and drugs. In this respect, a corpus o…
