Abstract
This study discusses and analyzes the issue of translating idioms from one language into another while focusing primarily on idioms which feature word constituents denoting human body parts. In the first part of the study, an overview is given of the basic theoretical information related to this area of linguistic research with the intent to delve into the reasons humans use formulaic language, the ways in which body part idioms have come to be and the various issues that occur in the process of idiom translation. Some key notions discussed are those of embodiment, somatic phraseology and interlingual phraseological equivalence. In the second part of the study, an analysis is provided of 56 pairs of body part idioms on the basis of the aforementioned theoretical framework with the aim of analyzing whether or not, and to what degree, the said theory applies to concrete examples of idiomatic language use in English and Russian. Each pair of idioms consists of a Russian idiom found in Dmitry Glukhovsky’s novel Метро 2033 (Metro 2033) and the idiom’s English equivalent found in Natasha Randall’s translation of the same work. The results of the analysis are provided in the Conclusion.
Abstract (russian)
В этой дипломной работе обсуждается и анализируется проблема перевода фразеологизмов с одного языка на другой, при чём особое внимание уделяется фразеологизмам с компонентамы, обозначающими части человеческого тела. В первой части работы даётся обзор основных теоретических сведений, относящихся к этой области лингвистического исследования. Обсуждаются причины, по которым люди используют идиоматические выражения, способы возникновения соматических фразеологизмов и различные проблемы, с которыми переводитель сталкивается в процессе перевода фразеологизмов. Обсуждены и некоторые ключевые концепции, как например «embodiment», соматическая фразеология и межъязыковая фразеологическая эквивалентность. Во второй части работы проводится анализ 56 пар соматических фразеологизмов с целью анализа того, применима ли, и в какой степени, указанная теория к конкретным примерам идиоматического использования языка. Каждая пара фразеологизмов состоит из русского фразеологизма, найденного в романе «Метро 2033» Дмитрия Глуховского и его английского эквивалента, найденного в переводе того же произведения. Результаты данного анализа представлены в заключении.
Abstract (croatian)
Ovaj diplomski rad obrađuje temu prijevoda frazema s jednoga jezika na drugi, s posebnim naglaskom na frazemima koji u svojoj strukturi sadrže riječi za dijelove ljudskoga tijela. U prvome dijelu rada naveden je teorijski okvir, pri čemu su pobliže opisani razlozi korištenja prenesenih značenja u jeziku, načini kako nastaju frazemi sa somatizmima te različite teškoće s kojima se prevoditelj susreće tijekom procesa prevođenja frazema. Obrađeni su i ključni pojmovi poput koncepta zvanoga embodiment ('otjelovljenje'), somatske frazeologije i međujezične frazeološke istovrijednosti. U drugome dijelu rada analizirano je 56 parova somatskih frazema kako bi se teorija iz prvoga dijela primijenila na konkretne slučajeve upotrebe idiomatskih značenja. Svaki par frazema sastoji se od ruskoga frazema iz romana Метро 2033 („Metro 2033“) Dmitrija Gluhovskoga i njegove engleske istovrijednice iz prijevoda toga istoga romana prevoditeljice Natashe Randall. Rezultati analize predstavljeni su u zaključku rada.
