Culture and Interpreting. Cultural factors in interpreting into the mother tongue
Jevsejeva, Taťjana ; Burianová, Světlana (referee) ; Čeňková, Ivana (advisor)
In this paper we study the impact of culture on interpreting and the methods of translation of specifi.c culture-bound terms. Interpreting is intercultural communication and the role of the culture in relation to the interpreter is crucial. In the theoretical part we describe the phenomenon of culture, the link between culture and language and the cultural competence factor of the interpreter. Culture-bound terms, the so-called "realia", are a specifi.c manifestation of cultural differences in the languages. In this paper we are proposing a classifi.cation of this type of vocabulary and methods of its translation. In the empirical part we study and analyze those methods. The aim of this thesis was to confi.rm or to disconfi.rm our hypothesis that professional interpreters will have better results than students of interpreting and that in the group of professional interpreters those who translate culture-bound terms from the historical period nearest to their generation will have better results. The hypothesis was partly confi.rmed, although we came to the conclusion that the knowledge of culture-bound terms is too complex an isue to be measured according to a certain generation to which interpreters belong. There is no doubt, however, that cultural experience is very important in the process of interpreting.
