EQUIVALENCE IN THE TRANSLATION OF PHRASEOLOGICAL UNITS
Keywords:
equivalence, translation, phraseological units, semantic nuances, linguistic and cultural competence, figurative meaning.Abstract
This article explores the issue of equivalence in the translation of phraseological units, which are fixed expressions that often carry figurative meanings and reflect the cultural and national identity of a language. The paper discusses the challenges associated with translating phraseological units, such as cultural differences, semantic nuances, and stylistic mismatches. Different strategies for achieving equivalence—full, partial, descriptive, or adaptive—are analyzed. The article emphasizes the importance of both linguistic and cultural competence in preserving meaning and stylistic features during the translation process.
