Eye‐tracking and translation memory matches

Abstract: Eye‐tracking has been used as a methodology for some time in various disciplines, but it has not been applied to date in translation studies. This paper presents results from a preliminary investigation which seeks to answer two questions: Firstly, is eye‐tracking, in general, a useful research methodology for investigating translators' interaction with Translation Memory tools? Secondly, what can eye-tracking data tell us about cognitive load when translators deal with different match types in Translation Memories? The results demonstrate that eye‐tracking data, including pupil dilation measurements and gaze replays, in association with retrospective protocols promise to be a very effective methodology for future research into translation processes. The results also suggest that the cognitive load for exact matches in Translation Memory tools is much lower than for other match types, that cognitive load for machine translation matches is close to fuzzy matches of between 80‐90% value, and that “no matche...

Subtitling: Diagonal translation

Abstract: Subtitling of televised foreign‐language material not only changes language; it also switches from the spoken to the written mode, and it presents itself ‘in real time’, as a dynamic text type. Hence, due to the complex, ‘diagonal’ nature of subtitling, the subtitler must possess the musical ears of an interpreter, the stylistic sensitivity of a literary translator, the visual acuteness of a film cutter, and the esthetic sense of a book designer. The author discusses subtitling in the context of language transfer, and suggests nine basic fields to consider when creating ‐ and evaluating ‐ interlingual subtitles for television and video.

Fifteen years of journalistic translation research and more

Abstract: This paper surveys the emergence and development of journalistic translation research (JTR), focusing on the publications of the past 15 years. Journalistic translation has managed to establish itself as a subarea of research within Translation Studies, as the entries in the major encyclopedias and handbooks attest. Translation contributed to the birth of journalism in seventeenth-century Europe through a number of weekely and monthly pamphlets and bulletins. Additionally it was (and remains) a cornerstone in news agencies and forged independence movements in the Americas. Academic interest in news translation began in the late 1980s and 1990s, particularly in Europe, where Stetting coined a much-used term, transediting, to refer to translation in the news. In the twenty-first century, JTR grew exponentially, as researchers have carried out empirical research on translated texts, have analyzed translation processes, have begun to study reception issues, and so on. The article also looks at some conceptual...
