In order to improve the quality of Korean literature's translation into Chinese and further guide Korean literature's entry into China in a more desirable direction, it is very important to evaluate the translation text in various ways and find a proper translation strategy. This paper examines the application patterns of the two translation strategies (foreignization and domestication), which are mainly reflected in the Chinese translation of Korean literature through a concrete translation text. When reviewing translation of literature, if you compare different versions of the same text and find the pros and cons of the translation strategy applied to each translation, you will be able to present useful information for future translation work. By comparing the three versions, we can draw the following conclusion: Although it is an era of cultural translation, the traditional free (or localized) translation method can not simply be regarded as an "outdated translation method". Of course, excessive localization of translation is certainly wrong. In short, foreignization and domestication are two complementary rather than contradictory strategies in translation. A satisfactory translation can be achieved by flexibly applying the two translation strategies according to the style and characteristics of the work, making full use of their strengths and avoiding their weaknesses, and coordinating with each other.

본 연구는 김호연의 소설 『불편한 편의점』에 등장하는 243개의 은유 표현을 대상으로 인간 번역, 챗GPT, DeepSeek의 한국어-중국어 은유 번역 전략을 비교 분석하고, 중국어 모어 화자의 수용성을 실증적으로 검증하였다. 분석 결과, 챗GPT와 DeepSeek는 원문의 은유적 이미지를 보존하는 유지 전략을 선호하는 출발 언어 지향적 경향을 보인 반면, 인간 번역자는 도착 언어 독자의 문화적 맥락에 맞게 은유를 재구성하는 치환 전략을 적극적으로 활용하였다. 수용성 평가 결과, 인간 번역의 치환 전략 평균 수용성 4.32, 생성형 AI 모델 유지 전략 평균 수용성 3.83-3.87점으로 형식적 등가의 추구가 도착 언어 독자의 실질적 수용성으로 온전히 이어지지 않음이 확인되었다. 본 연구는 생성형 AI 은유 번역의 한계와 가능성을 실증적으로 밝혔지만, 생성형 AI가 형식적 충실성을 유지하면서도 도착 언어 독자의 문화적 기대와 문학적 감수성에 부합하는 번역을 생성할 수 있는가는 번역학과 AI 연구가 함께 탐구해야 할 핵심 과제로 남아 있다.

This study presents a comparative analysis of translation strategies for Korean–Chinese metaphor rendition employed by human translators, ChatGPT, and DeepSeek, drawing on metaphorical expressions from a Korean literary work. Beyond a frequency-based analysis of translation strategies, the study empirically validates the qualitative dimension of translation through an acceptability evaluation conducted by native Chinese speakers. The findings indicate that human translators actively modulated their rendition strategies by carefully accounting for the cultural distance embedded in metaphorical expressions and the cognitive context of target-language readers. In contrast, generative AI models demonstrated limitations in fulfilling this function. However, the retention strategy adopted by generative AI models achieved a substantive level of acceptability among native Chinese speakers, suggesting potential for generative AI as a translation tool in the domain of literary metaphor rendition.

최근 한중 양국 간 문화 교류의 심화는 한국어 습득의 중요성을 더욱 부각시키고 있다. 또한, 외국어 학습은 단순히 어휘나 문법 습득에 국한되지 않고 학습자의 문화적 역량 향상에 초점을 맞추게 한다. 이에 대해 관용어는 언어 중에 문화적 특성을 내포한 표현으로 외국어 교육에서 불가결한 부분으로 사료된다. 본 연구는 2014년에서 2024년까지 10년간 한국어능력시험(TOPIK)에 공개된 기출 문제 중의 관용어를 수집하여 분석 대상으로 선정하고 한중 번역 전략을 탐구하고자 한다. 선정된 관용어를 의미 유형에 따라 감정·태도형, 행위·동작형, 기타형 관용어의 3가지 범주로 분류하였다. 또한 ‘감정·태도형’과 ‘행위·동작형’ 관용어를 중심으로 하여, 이에 적절한 번역 전략을 모색하고자 한다. 본 연구에서 출발 텍스트(ST)는 TOPIKⅡ 기출 문제 중 해당 관용어가 포함된 문장을 발췌하고, 기출 문제에 예문이 없는 관용어는『관용어사전』에 수록된 예문을 활용하였다. 한편, 도착 텍스트(TT)는 필자가 번역한 내용을 분석 대상으로 삼아, 각 유형의 관용어에 적용된 적절한 번역 기법을 체계적으로 분석하고 정리하고자 한다. 한중 번역 과정에서 관용어의 번역 전략은 전반적으로 기존 연구에서 제시된 ‘관용어 대체’, ‘의역’, ‘증역(增译)’ 등의 번역 방식과 일치하는 경향을 보였으나, 관용어 유형에 따라 전략적 차이가 나타났다. 그중 감정·태도형 관용어의 번역은 감정 전달 효과에 중점을 두는 반면, 행위·동작형 관용어의 번역은 의미의 명확성과 이미지 재현 간의 균형에 더 편중하는 경향을 보였다.

This study aims to explore Korean-Chinese translation strategies by collecting and analyzing the idioms presented in the official test questions of the Test of Proficiency in Korean (TOPIK) from 2014 to 2024. The study classifies idioms into three categories based on their semantic types: Emotional/Attitudinal Idioms, Action/Movement Idioms, and Other Types. This research primarily focuses on the Emotional/Attitudinal and Action/Movement types, and suggests appropriate translation strategies for each. For this research, the Source Text (ST) was extracted from the TOPIK II examination questions. Sentences containing the relevant idioms were highlighted, and examples from the Dictionary of Idioms were pulled for idioms lacking examples included in the test questions. The Target Text (TT), which consisted of the researcher's own translation of each idiom, was systematically analyzed to categorize and summarize the translation techniques applied to each idiom type in the TOPIK. The overall translation strategies for idioms translated from Korean to Chinese generally aligned with methods observed in existing studies, such as “Idiom Substitution,” “Paraphrasing,” and “Amplification.” However, strategic differences were also observed that depended on the idiom type. Specifically, the translation of Emotional/Attitudinal idioms emphasized the effectiveness of emotional conveyance, whereas the translation of Action/Movement idioms tended to prioritize balance between semantic clarity and image reproduction．

본 연구는 『홍루몽(紅樓夢)』의 ‘紅’ 계열 색채어를 대상으로 원문과 두 권의 한국어 번역본의 비교 분석을 통해 구조적 특징과 번역 양상을 규명하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 나아가 유진 나이다(E. Nida)의 기능적 등가 이론과 수잔 바스넷(S. Bassnett)의 문화번역 이론을 적용하여 원문의 미학적·문화적 함의를 효과적으로 재현할 수 있는 번역 전략을 모색하고자 한다. 분석 결과 ‘紅’ 계열 색채어(34종)는 전체 색채어(112종)의 약 30.36%를 차지하며 핵심적 비중을 보였다. ‘紅’, ‘朱’ 등 단일어는 인물의 신분과 품격을, ‘通紅’, ‘飛紅’ 등 상태형용사 결합형은 감정의 동요를, ‘石榴紅’, ‘楊妃色’ 등 사물명사 결합형은 문화적 상징을 강화하는 다층적 기능을 수행하였다. 이것은 ‘紅’ 계열 색채어가 시각적 색상을 넘어 감정, 심리, 사회적 위계를 포괄하는 복합 문화 기호(cultural sign)임을 시사한다. 두 번역본의 대조 분석 결과 직역 중심의 번역(번역본1)은 문화적 함의 전달이 부족했으며 의역 중심의 번역(번역본2)은 색채의 구체성이 약화되는 한계를 보였다. 이에 본 연구는 원문의 정서적 효과(기능적 등가)와 문화적 상징(문화번역)을 동시에 고려하는 통합적 번역 전략을 제안한다.

This study examines the translation of the ‘red’ color terms in Dream of the Red Chamber (紅樓夢), comparing the original text with two Korean translations by Choi Yong-cheol & Ko Min-hee (2009) and Hong Sang-hoon (2012). Drawing on Nida’s Functional Equivalence Theory and Bassnett’s Cultural Translation Theory, it aims to reveal the structural and cultural characteristics of Chinese color terms and propose effective translation strategies. A total of 112 color terms were identified in the novel, with 34 belonging to the ‘red’ series, accounting for about 30.36% of all color expressions. The ‘red’ terms convey not only visual imagery but also emotions, social hierarchy, and cultural symbolism. The first translation emphasizes literal fidelity, while the second focuses on emotional resonance, each showing different strengths and limitations. This study argues for an integrated translation strategy that balances functional equivalence (reproducing emotional effects) with cultural mediation (supplementing cultural-specific terms). This approach is essential for faithfully reproducing the aesthetic depth and cultural nuances of Dream of the Red Chamber.

This study aims to analyze the translation of Korean video content titles into Persian. The analysis reveals that among the translation methods used in Persian translated titles, ‘literal translation' method was the most frequently employed. These results are significant and show that a literate translation strategy is preferred to other strategies. Furthermore, this translation strategy reflects faithfully the intention to convey and focus on the meaning of the title itself. However, these preferences in term of translation strategies highlight a lack of consideration of Persian culture, Persian characteristics and expressions.

본 연구는 한국의 다양한 문화 콘텐츠, 특히 K-드라마, K-pop, K-movie가 세계적으로 확산되고 있는 현상을 번역학적 입장에서 조명해 보고자 하였다. 최근에 한류로 불리는 한국의 문화 콘텐츠가 세계 각국에 강한 인상을 남기며 그 영향력을 급속도로 확대해 나가고 있다. 이러한 흐름 속에서 최근 영화 “645”와 “파묘”와 같은 문화적 색채가 짙은 한국 영화가 베트남에서 연이어 큰 성공을 거두고 있다. 본 연구는 이들 영화가 베트남에서 성공을 거둘 수 있었던 배경에는 단순히 영화의 내용이나 연출력뿐만 아니라 한국과 베트남 간의 문화적 간극을 최소화하기 위한 번역가들의 노력이 큰 역할을 했다는 점에 주목했다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 영화 ‘파묘’의 베트남어 자막에서 한국의 역사, 문화, 사회와 관련된 어휘들 즉 문화소(Cultureme)가 어떠한 번역 양상을 나타내는지에 대한 분석을 연구의 주요 목표로 설정했다. 본 연구는 서론에서 연구의 목적과 선행연구를 2장에서는 영상 번역과 자막 번역의 특징을 소개했다. 이어지는 3장에서는 문화소와 번역전략에 관한 다양한 연구와 이론을 다루었다. 특히, 이 장에서는 영화 “파묘”의 한국어 자막에서 문화소를 체계적으로 이해하고 분석하는 과정에서 유용한 뉴마크(Newmark)의 문화소 분류 방식을 원용하여 한국어 자막에 나타난 문화소를 추출했다. 그리고 자막에서 문화소 번역전략에 특화된 페데르센(Pedersen)의 자막 번역전략을 활용하여 베트남어 자막에 나타난 문화소 번역 양상을 구체적인 번역 사례를 들어 고찰해 보았다. 이를 통해 한국어를 베트남어로 전환할 때 문화소에 적용된 번역전략이 베트남인들에게 어떻게 전달되는지를 분석하고자 하였다. 그 결과 영화 ‘파묘’의 베트남어 자막에서 출발어의 문화소들을 도착어에 효과적으로 전달하기 위해 몇몇 특정한 번역전략이 우세를 보이고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이를 구체적으로 살펴보면 출발어 지향적 번역전략의 갈래인 보존 전략이 27회(45.8%)로 가장 많이 사용된 것으로 나타났다. 이는 우리나라와 베트남 즉 출발어 문화권과 도착어 문화권 사이에 문화적 유사성이 많다는 것을 보여주는 동시에 출발어 문화권의 문화적 정체성을 유지하고자 하는 의도를 보여주는 것으로 판단된다. 이 밖에도 도착어 지향적 번역전략인 대체를 11회(19.3%), 일반화를 9회(15.8%) 적용함으로써 출발어 문화권의 문화적 요소에 대한 베트남 관객들의 이해를 돕는 데 기여하고 있었다. 이는 수많은 신조어, 유행어 등이 끊임없이 생성되고 일순간에 사라지는 현대 언어생활로 인해 베트남어로의 전환 시에 생긴 어휘의 공백을 보상하는 과정에서 도착어 지향적인 번역전략이 다수 사용된 것으로 생각된다. 둘째, 문화소 분류 범주별로 적용된 번역전략을 살펴보면 생태 문화소 11개 모두가 대체 전략을 사용했으며, 물질문화소에서는 대체, 생략, 보존 전략이 각각 1회, 사회문화에서는 일반화 5회, 구체화 1회, 조직, 관습 관련 문화소에서는 일반화 4회 보존 15회, 대체 6회, 구체화 2회 직접 번역전략이 2회, 언어문화에서는 대체 전략이 3회 사용된 것으로 나타났다. 이를 종합하면 한국어에서 베트남어로 문화소를 번역할 때 역사, 문화적 유사성과 어휘적 유사성을 바탕으로 보존 전략이 한국어에 서 베트남어로의 번역에 있어 가장 유효한 번역전략이라는 사실을 도출해 낼 수 있었다. 이러한 측면에서 해당 연구는 한국의 문화 콘텐츠가 베트남어로 효과적으로 전달되기 위해 적용되어야 할 번역전략을 파악하는 데 중요한 기초 자료로도 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This study aims to shed light on the global spread of various Korean cultural contents, particularly K-dramas, K-pop, and K-movies, from a translation studies perspective. Recently, Korean cultural content, known as the Korean Wave or Hallyu, has been making a strong impression around the world, rapidly expanding its influence. In this context, culturally rich Korean films such as “645” and “Exhuma” have recently achieved significant success in Vietnam. This study focuses on the fact that this success is not only due to the content or directorial prowess of the films but also to the efforts of translators to minimize the cultural gap between Korea and Vietnam. Accordingly, the main goal of this study is to analyze the translation patterns of culturemes-terms related to Korean history, culture, and society—in the Vietnamese subtitles of the film “Exhuma.” To this end, Chapter 2 discusses the characteristics of audiovisual and subtitle translation, while Chapter 3 covers the theories and concepts presented by various scholars and prior studies on culturemes and translation strategies. Specifically, in Chapter 3, Newmark’s classification of culturemes, which is useful in systematically understanding and analyzing culturemes in the Korean subtitles of the film “Exhuma,” was utilized to extract these culturemes. Subsequently, Pedersen’s subtitle translation strategies, which are specialized for translating culturemes in subtitles, were applied to examine the translation patterns of culturemes in the Vietnamese subtitles through specific translation examples. This analysis demonstrated how the translation strategies applied to culturemes in the transition from Korean to Vietnamese were conveyed to the Vietnamese audience. The results revealed that certain translation strategies were predominantly used to effectively convey the culturemes from the source language in the Vietnamese subtitles of the film “Exhuma.” Specifically, preservation, a source-oriented translation strategy, was used most frequently, appearing 27 times (45.8%). This suggests that there are significant cultural similarities between Korea and Vietnam, indicating an intention to maintain the cultural identity of the source language. Additionally, target-oriented translation strategies such as substitution (11 times, 19.3%) and generalization (9 times, 15.8%) were applied to help Vietnamese audiences better understand the cultural elements of the source language. This suggests that target-oriented translation strategies were often used to compensate for lexical gaps that arose during the translation of newly coined words, slang, and other contemporary language elements from Korean to Vietnamese. Furthermore, an analysis of the translation strategies applied by cultural category revealed that substitution was used for all 11 ecological culturemes, while substitution, omission, and preservation were each used once for material culturemes. For socio-cultural culturemes, generalization was applied 5 times and specification once. For organizational and customary culturemes, generalization was applied 4 times, preservation 15 times, substitution 6 times, specification twice, and direct translation twice. For linguistic culturemes, substitution was used 3 times. Overall, it can be concluded that, when translating culturemes from Korean to Vietnamese, the preservation strategy is the most effective translation strategy, based on historical and cultural similarities and lexical equivalence. In this regard, this study can also serve as essential foundational data for identifying translation strategies that should be applied to effectively convey Korean cultural content into Vietnamese.

『注文の多い料理店』의 한국어 번역본 『주문이 많은 요리점』을 대상으로 어휘와 문구를 중심으로 한 번역사례를 통해 번역자가 취한 번역전략을 살펴보았다. 우선 어휘 부분에서 ‘山鳥’는 ‘꿩’으로, ‘山猫’는 ‘고양이’로, ‘山猫軒’는 ‘고양이 회관’으로, ‘下女’는 ‘여종업원’ 또는 ‘일하는 사람’으로 번역을 하는 것이 가장 자연스럽다고 생각한다. 문구 부분에서 사례(1)과 사례(2)의 7명의 번역자 모두가 뉘앙스의 강약의 차이는 있지만 모두 복수 해석이 가능한 한국어로 번역하고 있다. 식당에서 사용하는 문구라는 점을 생각한다면 사례(1)에서는 유은경 역(2009), 사례(2)에서는 신지식 역(2013)이 가장 적절한 번역이라고 생각한다. 사례(3)에서 작품의 흐름상 「すぐたべられます」는 가능과 수동의 의미가 들어간 ‘곧 먹습니다’로 번역하는 것이 적절한 번역이라고 생각한다.

This paper reviews various Korean translations of Kenji Miyazawa’s The Restaurant of Many Orders (注文の多い料理店 Chūmon no Ōi Ryōriten) to discuss different translation strategies by examining lexicon and the contexts. In terms of lexicon, the most direct Korean translations for “山鳥,” “山猫,” “山猫軒,” and “下女” would be “kwŏng” (꿩) [a pheasant], “goyang’i” (고양이) [a cat], “goyang’i hwe’gwan” (고양이회관) [a meeting hall of the cats], and “yŏ’jong’ŏp’wŏn” (여종업원) [a waitress] or “il’ha’neun sa’ram” (일하는 사람) [a working person], respectively. To comment about the contexts of Case (1) and Case (2), all seven translators mentioned in the paper used Korean words that are likely to have multiple interpretations, though featuring different nuances and stresses. Given that the terms quoted in the paper are used in a restaurant, translations by Yoo Eun-kyung (2009) in Case (1) and Shin Ji-shik (2013) in Case (2) appear to be the most appropriate. In the context of the book, a recommendable translation of “sūzūtaberaremasū” (すぐたべられます) [You can eat right away] in Case (3) would be “got mŏk’sūm’ni’da” (곧 먹습니다) [The food can be served soon], a passive sentence featuring various possibilities.

This study aims to analyze the Russian translation of Kim Joo-Young's 'The Sound of Thunder' to examine translation problems in translating Korean women's language. As for the concept of women’s language, this study defines it the “language where women are the subject”, which includes address terms, expressions, and conducts related to women. According to Korean linguists, Korean women's language was influenced by Confucian principles and reflects traditions of food, clothing, other life necessities, social norms, history, and unequal representation of women in Korean society, such as man-dominance, preference to sons, the patriarchal system, etc. Therefore, it is hard to find any equivalent expressions or concepts in target language. And translating such kind of culture-specific women's languages, a translator faces the problems caused by cultural gaps. In this regard, the translation of korean women's language is not just changing linguistic codes, but mediating cultural gaps between source language and target language societies. This paper, in this perspectives, analyzes the Russian translations of 'the Sound of Thunder' and examines which translation strategies are taken by the translator to mediate the cultural gaps related with women's language.

This paper examined the translation strategy of Chinese translation of Korean TV drama titles for the last ten years and searched for examples of translation memes usage. In present-day society where the influence of media is growing daily and more inter-cultural infiltration occurs than ever, television is a media that can have a powerful ripple effect on a large mass of people. Consequently, more attention needs to be devoted to the translation of Korean TV dramas. Whereas in the earlier years, translation relied largely on Korean strategies, in later years, focus shifted to the localization of Korean culture. It is believed that out of the 131 dramas that have been aired in China over the past 10 years, only 13% of the translation meme has been properly conveyed. It is regrettable that the study was not able to examine every Korean TV drama aired in regions of China, however it is anticipated that depending on information release by the Chinese broadcasting companies, further, more comprehensive studies will be possible in the future. It is expected that the investigation of Korean TV drama title translation strategies and translation memes will be of use to professional media translators and maximize receptivity of Korean and Chinese cultures through translation.

Kim, Han-sik. (2007). Differences between Korean and Japanese Newspaper Articles : from the Perspective of Sentence Length. Interpreting and Translation Studies 10-2, pp.69-83. This thesis makes analysis of the differences between Korean and Japanese newspaper articles for each section and publisher from the perspective of sentence length (character count per sentence). One of the most noticeable differences found was that while Japanese newspaper articles maintained about the same character count regardless of subject area, Korean articles showed particularly higher character count in politics, society and economy sections. It has also been studied that the Korean newspaper articles had higher character count than that of Japanese newspaper articles on average. However, against one's expectation, it was the other way around when it came to the lead text, as higher number of long sentences has been found in Japanese newspaper articles than in Korean ones. Unlike opinions, news stories tend to stay away from exposing writer's literary style. Therefore, in his/her translation strategy, a translator is recommended to place greater importance on readability of the Target Text than on the issues involving the Source Text.

Kim, Na-jeong. (2007). A Study on the Japanese Sentence Final Ending '-ne' and Its Korean Translation : through the Japanese Literature Hear the Songs of the Winds. Interpreting and Translation Studies 10-2, pp.27-45. The present paper compares and analyzes the Japanese literature ‘Kazeno utawo kike’(Hear the Songs of the Winds) and its Korean translated version to study how the Japanese sentence final ending '-ne' is translated. The results prove that diverse ways of expressing '-ne' exist, which do not correlate with the results of previous researches on the Korean linguistics. Translators aiming at producing translated works meeting a high level of perfection needs to continually research and heighten their understanding of linguistics and translation and not rely solely on 'experience and intuition.' It is especially necessary to establish a framework of grammar and pragmatics in order to enhance the quality of translation.

This study reviewed the English translations of Korean food names released by the National Institute of Korean Language (NIKL), in an attempt to investigate how they are accepted by prospective consumers of Korean foods. A quantitative survey of 300 respondents was conducted using a structured questionnaire in the United States, United Kingdom, and Australia, specifically looking into correlations between their preference of translation strategies and their age, education, and experience with Korea. The respondents were asked to rate the adequacy of the translation of Korean dishes in terms of "meaning" ("I can understand what the food is by its name") and "expression" ("The name is naturally expressed in English") after seeing the names and photos of the dishes. The respondents showed relatively high acceptance for literal and semantic translation (positive responses in the range between 65% and 80%), while their rating was very low for transliteration (meaning-19.0%, expression-21.6%) which is the NIKL’s preferred translation strategy. An in-depth survey was carried out with 9 native English speakers living in Korea to better understand underlying assumptions toward different translation strategies, and ultimately explore measures to improve current translations. With the integrated data from quantitative and qualitative research, the study revealed that translation strategies should be decided in consideration of readers’ attitudes toward and awareness of foreign culture.

We have analyzed 63 Korean noun culturemes in the historical film entitled “Forbidden Dream” (Korean title “Cheonmun”), which were classified into the three categories of job titles or ranks, concrete nouns and abstract nouns. We adopted the four translation strategies of transfer, transliteration, generalization and condensation for the analysis of those culturemes in the English subtitles, We found that the strategy of transfer, which translates culturemes literally, was employed much more than any other strategy. The strategy of transliteration was utilized as much as condensation. This fact reflects the characteristic of a Korean historical film which shows many job titles or buildings to be romanized. The generalization and condensation strategies were adopted to deliver difficult culturemes as easily as possible or as the result of the time and space constraints. Unfortunately, we found some inconsistency in translating some characters’ titles, which may confuse the story.

Although there is still a strong belief in the effectiveness of monolingual L2 teaching across the world, translation in language teaching (TILT) has been gradually gaining recognition as a valuable tool to help L2 learners. In this paper, the author pays special attention to paraphrasing, or intralingual translation, something which is innate in all language users. Thereafter, she explains an empirical study which was conducted using “paraphrasing translation (PT),” a combination of paraphrasing and translation, as a TILT approach to help develop learners’ L2 productive competence. The study consisted of four 50-minute PT workshops, prior to and followed by written translation tests and questionnaires. This was provided to 87 Japanese high school students learning English as a foreign language to investigate (1) if PT is effective, and (2) if learners feel PT is effective, in terms of the development of L2 productive competence. The results of the study indicated a very positive response to PT in L2 teaching, which leads the author to propose there be further research into the use of translation in language teaching.

This paper looks into student performance in the use of the segmentation strategy while doing sight translation. The paper finds that while students are using the segmentation strategy in their performances, as indicated by a simple comparison of the number of sentences in the original text with the target text transcription, there is room for improvement in a more accurate use of the falling and rising intonation to indicate that there is indeed a segmentation that took place in the target text. Also, the students should be encouraged to develop a larger pool of discourse markers that can be used in making the segmented parts to be logically connected while fully conveying the message of the original text. The experiment result of this study also finds the need for a more detailed definition of the terms used in the analysis, such as ‘sentence’: a term well-defined and accepted in the written text, but that needs to be redefined in the audio input of the SI data.

Notre étude a pour objectif d’examiner la possibilité d’appliquer, dans le domaine de l’enseignement de la traduction, le SILL (Strategy Inventory for Language Learning), questionnaire destiné à mettre en évidence les types de stratégies mis en oeuvre par des apprenants en langues, instrument largement utilisé lors de l’apprentissage linguistique. Pour ce faire, nous avons procédé à une analyse du questionnaire SILL rempli par des étudiants ayant assisté aux cours de traduction. Celle-ci a effectivement montré une corrélation entre les compétences des étudiants et leurs choix de stratégies : les étudiants compétents ont plus eu recours aux stratégies de la mémoire, cognitives, et de compensation, tandis que les moins compétents se sont plutôt tournés vers les stratégies métacognitives, sociales et de l’affection. Une analyse plus approfondie a d’ailleurs été réalisée pour identifier les stratégies les plus efficaces employées pendant l’acte de traduire. En conclusion, le SILL apparaît comme un outil utile servant à analyser les stratégies des étudiants dans leur tâche de traduction, fournissant ainsi des informations fiables en vue d’améliorer l’efficacité des cours de traduction.
