Reem explains
Ich habe ja auch Ziele, so wie jeder andere. Ich möchte studieren. Es ist wirklich ein Wunsch und ein Ziel, das ich gerne schaffen möchte.
[I also have goals, like anyone else. I would like to study [at the university]. It’s really my aspiration and something that I would really like to do

Reem explains
Und es ist wirklich sehr unangenehm zuzusehen, wie andere wirklich das Leben genießen können und man es selber halt nicht mitgenießen kann.
[And it is really unpleasant to see how others can really enjoy life and one cannot enjoy life along with them.]Slide9

You did that really well.
Moderator: I don’t think, Madam Chancellor, that it is about doing things well. It is a very difficult situation…Merkel: I know it is a difficult situation. That is why I want to comfort her [third person], because I [singular], because we [plural] do not want to put you [euch, second person plural] in such situations and because it is very difficult for you [du, singular] and because you have presented really well for many, many others the kind of situation that one can find oneself in.

In non-translation
Highly embedded language
Key roles for modal particles
Incomplete sentencesSwitches between interpersonal framesThe act of representation becomes the event.Language is part of the event. Slide20
In translation?
Less embedded language
Omitted modal particles
Complete sentencesFixed interpersonal framesThe act of representation is not the event.Language is supposed to be separable from the event. Slide21
“The most wonderful moment”
(I stole this activity from Andrew Chesterman.)
250 words in L1
Partner translates into L2Author and partner reviseWho makes the most changes?Author: It’s right, but it’s not my experienceIt does not elicit the same response.Because language is part of the event (and of recollection of the event).Slide22
Translation reception?
Empirical studies show little difference
So work from ideal reception, the changes we would like to make. Slide23
Cultures of no response?
Rather than responding to messages sent by activists and critics, they counter with their own contributions to the circulating flow of communications, hoping that sufficient volume (whether in terms of number of contributions or the spectacular nature of a contribution) will give their contributions dominance or stickiness.
