Exercise 17: Before translation study the theory of translation – neologism
Неологизмы - слова из раздела безэквивалентной лексики. К ним относятся как лексические единицы, которые уже вошли в словари новых слов, так и те, что еще не зарегистрированы в них. Неологизм определяется как новое слово (устойчивое сочетание слов), новое либо по форме, либо по содержанию, либо по форме и содержанию.
В переводческой практике, в тех многочисленных случаях, когда отсутствует эквивалент перевода, при передаче неологизмов с английского языка на русский используется ряд приемов. К ним относятся:
1. Транслитерация: Весенняя улица - Vesennyaya ulitsa, Красноярский край - Krasnoyarskiy krai)
2. Калькирование: дом культуры - House of Culture; парк культуры и отдыха - Park of Culture and Rest
3. Транскрибирование: Иван Грозный - Ivan Groznyy
4. Описательный перевод: landslide - победа на выборах с большим перевесом голосов, brinkmanship- искусство держать мир на грани войны.
Переводов неологизмов убеждает нас в том, что самым распространенным оказывается перевод путем подбора соответствующего аналога на другом языке. К сожалению, словари неологизмов на русском языке издаются крайне редко. Переводчик многое мог бы почерпнуть из таких словарей. В эпоху массовой коммуникации существуют поистине беспрецедентные возможности для развития и распространения неологизмов. Ярким тому доказательством является язык прессы нашего времени. Язык американской прессы чуть ли не ежедневно обогащается неологизмами. Многие из них, правда, так и остаются "неологизмами-однодневками", тогда как другие "слова-экспромты" все же постепенно переходят в основной словарный фонд. Для перевода неологизмов можно использовать:"Webster"s New International Dictionary", "The American Heritage" или электронный ресурс abbyy lingvo.com
Exercise 18: Before translation make a back-ground analysis: DNA, microRNAs, oncogenes, chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
Exercise 19: Translate the text:
CANCER
1. Cancer (medical term: malignant neoplasm) is a class of diseases in which a group of cells display uncontrolled growth (division beyond the normal limits), invasion (intrusion on and destruction of adjacent tissues), and sometimes metastasis (spread to other locations in the body via lymph or blood). These three malignant properties of cancer differentiate them from benign tumors, which are self-limited, do not invade or metastasize. Most cancers form a tumor but some, like leukemia, do not. The branch of medicine concerned with the study, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of cancer is oncology.
2. Cancer may affect people at all ages, even fetuses, but the risk for most varieties increases with age. Cancer causes about 13% of all deaths. According to the Russian Cancer Society, 7.6 million people died from cancer in the world during 2007. Cancers can affect all animals. Nearly all cancers are caused by abnormalities in the genetic material of the transformed cells. These abnormalities may be due to the effects of carcinogens, such as tobacco smoke, radiation, chemicals, or infectious agents. Other cancer-promoting genetic abnormalities may be randomly acquired through errors in DNA replication, or are inherited, and thus present in all cells from birth. The heritability of cancers is usually affected by complex interactions between carcinogens and the host's genome. New aspects of the genetics of cancer pathogenesis, such as DNA methylation, and microRNAs are increasingly recognized as important.
3. Genetic abnormalities found in cancer typically affect two general classes of genes. Cancer-promoting oncogenes are typically activated in cancer cells, giving those cells new properties, such as hyperactive growth and division, protection against programmed cell death, loss of respect for normal tissue boundaries, and the ability to become established in diverse tissue environments. Tumor suppressor genes are then inactivated in cancer cells, resulting in the loss of normal functions in those cells, such as accurate DNA replication, control over the cell cycle, orientation and adhesion within tissues, and interaction with protective cells of the immune system.
4. Diagnosis usually requires the histologic examination of a tissue biopsy specimen by a pathologist, although the initial indication of malignancy can be symptoms or radiographic imaging abnormalities. Most cancers can be treated and some cured, depending on the specific type, location, and stage. Once diagnosed, cancer is usually treated with a combination of surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. As research develops, treatments are becoming more specific for different varieties of cancer. There has been significant progress in the development of targeted therapy drugs that act specifically on detectable molecular abnormalities in certain tumors, and which minimize damage to normal cells. The prognosis of cancer patients is most influenced by the type of cancer, as well as the stage, or extent of the disease. In addition, histologic grading and the presence of specific molecular markers can also be useful in establishing prognosis, as well as in determining individual treatments.
