The purpose of this study is to explore the strategies for translating degrading and vulgar expressions. To this end, four Korean movie scripts with German subtitles were analyzed in terms of the linguistic choices of the translators in their translation assignments of degrading expressions and vulgarisms. The four main strategies discovered are avoidance, maintenance. mitigation, and intensification. Contrary to our expectations, the strategy of maintenance was used in only one third of the cases. Meanwhile, the rate of intensification was relatively low. As for the reasons behind the translators' choice of such strategies, we can point out various factors such as consideration of contextual surroundings, norm consciousness of tabooedness in the target language, film ratings or age limits according to the movie type, and priority given to brevity as a linguistic style which is typical of movie script translations, etc. The correlation between translation variables and characteristics of tabooedness is to be explored in future studies.
