Abstract
Every translation comes with challenges, but that is especially true when it comes to interlingual subtitling. Subtitling, as one of the main types of audiovisual translation, has the added difficulty of having to adhere to time and space restrictions. The text of the subtitles also has to be synchronized with the image and the sound as precisely as possible. Because of that, translators are often forced to use different strategies to ensure the quality of the subtitles. That is even more important when translating medical terminology and fast-paced medical drama series. Medicine uses lingua franca, which was formerly Latin, but is now English. As a result, a lot of the internationally used medical terminology is in Latin and English, with new terminology often consisting of acronyms and compounds. In this thesis, around 200 examples of translations of medical terminology in the subtitles of the American medical drama series Grey’s Anatomy were analysed to determine which translation strategies were used the most and the least when subtitling. This analysis was based on the typology proposed by Pedersen (2007: 130-152) and further developed by Lindell (2010: 8). The strategies are: full translation, omission, retention, specification (subordination and explicitation (addition and completion)), and generalization (superordination, paraphrase and implicitation).
Abstract (croatian)
Svaki prijevod dolazi s izazovima, ali to je osobito istinito kada je riječ o prevođenju titlova. Titlovanje, kao jedna od glavnih vrsta audiovizualnog prijevoda, dodatno je otežano jer se prevoditelji moraju pridržavati vremenskih i prostornih ograničenja. Titlovi također moraju biti što točnije usklađeni sa slikom i zvukom. Zbog toga su prevoditelji često prisiljeni koristiti različite strategije kako bi titlovi bili kvalitetni. To je još važnije kod prevođenja medicinske terminologije u medicinskim dramskim serijama s brzim tempom. Lingua franca, kojim se koristi medicina, prije je bio latinski, a sada je engleski. Kao rezultat toga, mnogo međunarodno korištene medicinske terminologije je na latinskom i engleskom, a nova terminologija često se sastoji od akronima i složenica. U ovom diplomskom radu analizirano je 200 primjera prijevoda medicinske terminologije u titlovima američke medicinske dramske serije Uvod u anatomiju kako bi se utvrdilo koje su strategije prevođenja najviše, a koje najmanje korištene pri titlovanju. Ova se analiza temeljila na klasifikaciji koju je predložio Pedersen (2007: 130-152), a koju je dodatno razradila Lindell (2010: 8). Strategije su: službeni prijevod, izostavljanje, zadržavanje, specificiranje (podređivanje i ekspliciranje (dodavanje i dopunjavanje)) i generaliziranje (nadređivanje, parafraziranje i impliciranje).
