Description
Write some sentences to give suggestions to following proposals. (Couple sentences will be fine, no need to write an essay about it)
HOW TO COMMENT:
- What more could/should the writer research about the significance of the text, the stakes of translation, the advantage of having a human versus a machine translator?
- How might power relationships between the source and target languages influence whether you lean toward “domestication” or “foreignization”?
- What are the basic differences of writing system, grammar/syntax, and cultural presuppositions between source and target languages? What technical challenges is the writer most concerned about at this stage? What advice can you give them?
- Ethical questions: What is the “other” to whom you, as translator, have an ethical responsibility? Affective questions: do you have a personal affective stance toward this text; do you want your reader to have one; and if so--how could that influence your translation decisions?
- Given all that you’ve learned about this project, do you have suggestions about which of the assigned readings for this quarter would be good to reference in the commentary?
