A obra está inserida nesta dupla linha de investigação: a competência tradutória e sua aquisição; e a didática da tradução. O livro é uma contribuição importante para a investigação sobre a competência tradutória, uma vez que aborda o estudo das diversas subcompetências essenciais para o tradutor (bilíngue, extralinguística, instrumental e estratégica) e para o tradutólogo (competência teórica e metateórica). Além disso, são propostas diretrizes pedagógicas para o desenvolvimento dessas subcompetências, através das quais também se demarcam as pesquisas sobre a didática da tradução. Os aspectos tratados no livro são de natureza diversa – tradução de acrósticos, de piadas, da estrutura verbal em textos literários –, bem como contemplam o uso de recursos de documentação para tradutores.

This textbook provides a comprehensive resource for translation students and educators embarking on the challenge of translating into and out of English and Arabic. Combining a solid basis in translation theory with examples drawn from real texts including the Qu’ran, the author introduces a number of the problems and practical considerations which arise during translation between English and Arabic, equipping readers with the skills to recognise and address these issues in their own work through practical exercises. Among these considerations are grammatical, semantic, lexical and cultural problems, collocations, idioms and fixed expressions. With its coverage of essential topics including culturally-bound terms and differences, both novice and more experienced translators will find this book useful in the development of their translation practice. Noureldin Abdelaal is Assistant Professor of Translation at the University of Nizwa, Oman.

This major new reference work provides a comprehensive overview of linguistic phenomena in Mandarin and other dialects in a global context, highlighting the dynamic interaction between those languages and English. Through state-of-the-art accounts of various sub-fields such as applied linguistics, machine translation, English subtitling as cross-cultural mediation, technology in Chinese language teaching and global business communication, this Handbook offers a significant contribution to the field of Chinese language and linguistics. Examining fast-growing linguistic research areas on Chinese languages, ranging from research on language contact, Linguistic Typology, Cognitive Linguistics, Pragmatics, Forensic Linguistics, to Sinitic Kinship studies, it focuses on language contact situations inside and outside China, including the Cantonese and Hokkien diaspora, and Sinitic languages notably along the Belt and Road. Exploring how key Chinese concepts were coined at the beginning of the 20th century through interaction with European languages and how they have evolved, it also includes topics on the search for a universal language in the Chinese language context. Addressing core issues within Chinese language and culture and focusing on the sites and forms of interaction between Chinese and English, this Handbook encompasses a rich overview of the field, offering a global and interdisciplinary tool for students and researchers across the field of Chinese language and linguistics.
