Tradução: Teorias e Práticas
- 1. TRADUÇÃO
- 3. Tradução “Traduzir nem sempre é apenas verter um texto para outro idioma, mas transformá-lo em informação fácil de digerir” Mario Persona
- 4. Refletir sobre a realidade da tradução, tanto do ponto de vista teórico, quanto prático. Para tanto, visamos desmistificar certas crenças a respeito sobre a tradução, abordaremos estratégias na busca de subsídios na visão de alguns teóricos sobre o tema.
- 5. O menino comeu um pedaço de bolo O menino comeu uma fatia do bolo
- 6. Não há consenso entre os teóricos da área do que seja tradução. Para Catford (1980, p.22), por exemplo, "... tradução é a substituição de material textual de uma língua por material textual equivalente em outra". Por outro lado Arrojo (1986. p. 42) cita Derrida (1980, p. 87) ao advogar a favor de uma definição de tradução como "uma transformação: uma transformação de uma língua em outra, de um texto em outro". Já segundo Campos (1997, p. 7), traduzir é "nada mais do que dizer, passar de uma língua para outra, um texto escrito na primeira delas".
- 8. Barcelos (2005, P. 129) "todos os assuntos para os quais ainda não dispomos de conhecimento certo, dando-nos confiança suficiente para agirmos, bem como assuntos que aceitamos como verdadeiros, como conhecimento, mas que podem ser questionados no futuro"
- 9. 1 "a tradução é uma arte reservada a uns poucos que podem exercê-la graças a um dom especial" 2 “a tradução é uma atividade pratica que requer apenas um conhecimento da língua e um bom dicionário" 3 " a tradução está limitada ao texto e ativa apenas duas habilidades - leitura e escrita; lenta e passível de desperdiçar tempo da aula
- 10. Barcelos (2005) ressalta a necessidade de os programas de formação de professores proporcionarem espaço para que os professores discutam suas crenças sobre aprendizagem e tomem explicitas suas crenças sobre as crenças de aprendizes.
- 12. • • • • • A consulta a textos paralelos; A utilização de dicionários; O recurso a especialistas; O uso da internet; Recursos computadorizados.
- 14. LF= Língua Fonte LM= Língua Meta Na tradução literal, ou palavra por palavra, passa-se diretamente o LF para o LM, porém a idiomaticidade e gramaticalidade adequadas à LM são asseguradas. Os autores ressaltam que este procedimento pode acontecer em línguas distantes, que em alguns pontos possuam traços extralinguísticos compartilhados ou convergência de pensamentos, ainda que seja mais frequente em línguas próximas. (VINAY; DARBELNET, 1958) She is a teacher. Ela é uma professora.
- 15. O decalque, dividido em dois tipos: lexical e estrutural. Trata-se de uma espécie de empréstimo, relativo a um grupo de palavras, no qual: a) é inserida uma nova forma de expressão, sem com isso subverter a estrutura sintática da LM, e b) é incluída na LM uma nova construção. Em ambos os casos, traduz-se literalmente cada um dos elementos da LF. Ex: transposição do adjetivo no inglês. Lugar de leitura. a)Place of reading. b)Reading place.
- 16. O empréstimo segundo estes autores (VINAY; DARBELNET, 1958), é o método mais simples dentre os procedimentos de tradução. Ele ocorre quando palavras ou expressões estrangeiras são utilizadas pelo tradutor, geralmente por dois motivos: a) para preencher uma deficiência, normalmente extralinguística, ou b) para garantir no LM a cor local da LF.
- 17. Vidas secas de Graciliano Ramos: Subiu a ladeira. A aragem morna sacudia os xiquexiques e os mandacarus (p. 15) Barren Lives by Graciliano Ramos: As the climbed the slope a warm breeze stirred cactus (p. 11). Sujestão: The warm breeze shook the xiquexiques and the mandacarus.
- 18. A transposição desmembra-se em dois tipos, obrigatória e opcional. A este procedimento relacionam-se os casos em que uma classe de palavra é substituída por outra sem ocasionar mudanças no significado da mensagem. Saudade = I miss you. A Equivalência acontece quando dois textos podem expressar a mesma situação usando meios estilísticos e estruturais diversos. Don’t make a mountain out of a molehill. “Não faça tempestade em um copo d’agua”
- 19. o procedimento de adaptação é o limite extremo, utilizado apenas quando não é possível reproduzir na LM a situação referida pela mensagem na LF, pois esta não é conhecida na cultura de chegada. Para suprir esta dificuldade, o tradutor tem de criar uma nova situação comparável, ou que seja considerada como equivalente, na LM. (VINAY; DARBELNET, 1958) “He kissed his daughter on the mouth.” “Il serra tendrement as fille dans ses bras.”
