MAJOR STRATEGY WHILE TRANSLATING LEXICAL NONSENSE: DOMESTICATION VS FOREIGNIZATION?
Journal Title: Науковий вісник Херсонського державного університету. Серія «Перекладознавство та міжкультурна комунікація» - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
The paper focuses on specifics of creating Ukrainian translation equivalents to English lexical nonsense (based on the fairy tale “BFG” by Roald Dahl). Domestication implemented with the help of the calque (loan translation) and compensa¬tion has been defined as the major strategy while coining equivalents to nonsensical units. The conclusion is made that the translator makes an equivalent to each particular nonsensical lexeme taking into account its functions in the original literary work.
