ABSTRACT Though The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is one of excellent works by Mark Twain, which has great impacts on American literature, there have been little to no research on the way professional translators translate it into Vietnamese As an attempt to gain more insights into translation methods in literary translation, this research aims to investigate the translation methods used by the two translators Nguy Mong Huyen and Hoang Van Phuong in translating The Adventures of Tom Sawyer into Vietnamese Besides that, the research succeeds in identifying the frequency of every translation methods as well as their effectiveness Finally, some suggestions would also be given These goals were achieved by a research using questionnaire and document observation Questionnaire were delivered to all th year students majoring in Translation and Interpreting, FELTE, ULIS, VNU Findings from the study show that there are up to out of translation methods according to Peter Newmark’s theory being used throughout the story The Adventures of Tom Sawyer The most common translation method applied is communicative translation – a surprise to the researcher as the most appropriate method which are usually used in literary works is semantic translation method The study also suggests a non-traditional point in translating literary works Moreover, the researcher also suggest some better issues for further research i TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT .i TABLE OF CONTENTS .ii LIST OF TABLES, FIGURES .i CHAPTER I: INTRODUCTION CHAPTER II: LITERATURE REVIEW 3.1 Mark Twain 12 3.2 The Adventures of Tom Sawyer .13 CHAPTER III: METHODOLOGY 14 CHAPTER IV: RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 17 1.1 Semantic translation 19 1.3 Faithful translation 29 1.5 Idiomatic translation 33 1.6 Adaptation .36 2.1 Participants 38 2.2 Time 38 2.3 Process .38 2.4 The result for translation methods applied in translating The Adventures of Tom Sawyer decided by students .39 CHAPTER V: CONCLUSION 42 REFERENCES .45 APPENDIX 47 APPENDIX 52 ii LIST OF TABLES, FIGURES Page Abbreviation SL: Source language Figure TL: Target language Translation methods applied in The Adventures of Tom Table Sawyer Translation methods applied in translating The Adventures of Tom Sawyer decided by students i 9 18 40 ii CHAPTER I: INTRODUCTION Statement of the research and practical rationale for the study As the country is increasingly integrating into the world, Vietnam has more and more chances to raise its competitiveness, develop the economy and enhance the living standard for people However, the integration also requires proper conditions and preparations Language difference is one of the most basic one That is why the role of translation is more important than ever It has great impact and relation to many aspects in daily modern life Being aware of the need for qualified translators in the near future, in recent years, the University of Language and International Studies has made great progress in enhancing the quality of training translators and interpreters Being a senior student of the Translation – Interpretation Training Division at University of Language and International Studies - Vietnam National University, researcher decided to make a study on the field of English –Vietnamese translation as the graduation paper to improve my understanding and preparation about my future career Translation is a complex academic field “Translation is not merely an interlinguistic process It is more complex than replacing source language text with target language text and includes cultural and educational nuances that can shape the options and attitudes of recipients.” (Bernacka, 2012) In the field of translation, one key concept which cannot be ignored is the translation methods The concept is not new It is a powerful measure to make the most appropriate translation There are many types of document which need to be translated To make standard translation, the translator has to apply a proper translation method which is suitable with each type of document The understanding and distinguishing of translation methods are still limited and controversial Yet, the main subject of the study is about translation methods In order to make an effective study on translation methods, literary works such as novels, stories and poems are good suggestions Various types of works as well as the flexible contents which need to be transferred to readers enable the study to make a thorough analysis on translation methods Therefore, a study on translation methods in literary should be scientifically conducted As a famous and highly-evaluated short story, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain is chosen as the subject of the study More specifically, the Vietnamese version by Nguy Mong Huyen and Hoang Van Phuong is the subject to make comparison with the original one It is regarded as one of the most common and successful literary translation For all those reasons, the study “The translation methods applied in Vietnamese version of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain” is conducted to make a better view on the field of translation methods Aims and objectives By researching the work The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain and its Vietnamese version, the study aims to: - Identify all the translation methods which professional translators apply in the translated version The Adventures of Tom Sawyer - Identify the main translation methods which mostly applied in the translated version The Adventures of Tom Sawyer - Make recommendations for further researches on translation studies In order to achieve those goals, the research aims to answer these following research questions: What are the translation methods Nguy Mong Huyen and Hoang Van Phuong applied in the Vietnamese version of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain? 2 What are the most common and effective translation methods Nguy Mong Huyen and Hoang Van Phuong applied in the Vietnamese version of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain? Significance of the study The study aims at supporting translators-to-be of Translation and Interpretation Division, University of Language and International Studies, Vietnam National University as well as novice translators in particular and anyone who has the same interest in literary translation Firstly, the study is expected to provide readers with a better view on academic translation methods More specifically, the study provides concepts and uses of all kinds of translation methods which are applied in Vietnamese version of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer To some extent, it can help to develop the understanding of readers about the translation methods which can be useful for literary translation Thanks to this, readers can find it useful in their process of mastering translation theory Secondly, readers can find here the most common and effective translation methods which are applied properly in Vietnamese version of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer To this extent, the study helps to make deep and thorough view about some specific translation methods which are useful for professional researches about translation Thirdly, the study provides readers with better suggestions about the translation methods which can be applied in translating literary works of Mark Twain, which supports better translations on these ones This can provide researchers with some useful and reliable information for their further studies in the future Scope of the study Translation is a complex and sophisticated concept, so it is impossible to discover all the aspects of this issue Within the scope of this graduation paper, this study focuses on translation methods Main dimensions of translation methods will be mentioned such as semantic translation, communicative translation, literal translation, word-for-word translation, faithful translation, adaptive translation, free translation and idiomatic translation All the quotations and examples, comparisons in the study are extracted from the English and Vietnamese versions of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain (translated by Nguy Mong Huyen and Hoang Van Phuong) Organization of the study The structure of the study is as following: Chapter - Introduction: Provide an overview of the study with rationale, aims and objectives, significance and organization of the study Chapter - Literature review: Provide key concepts in translation and linguistic in order to understand the concept of translation and translation methods Chapter - Methodology: State methods of the study including selection of subjects, research instrument, procedures of data collecting and procedures of data analysis Chapter - Findings and discussion: Discuss the results of the study and explain how these results are discovered, then explain how they answer the research questions Chapter - Conclusion: Summarize discussed points, limitation of the study as well as suggestions for further researches CHAPTER II: LITERATURE REVIEW Definitions of translation Translation is a complex concept and many key thinkers have introduced its definition R Jakobson (1959) mentioned it in his theory “On linguistic aspects of translation” Following this theory, there are three types of translation as follow: • Intralingual translation (or rewording): An interpretation of verbal signs by means of other sign in the same language • Interlingual translation (translation paper): An interpretation of verbal signs by means of some other languages • Intersemiotic translation (transmutation): An interpretation of verbal signs of non-verbal system This classification seems quite obscure, as it describes the translation from a panorama view In this definition, translation does not merely concern linguistic units like words, sentences, texts but also refers to non-linguistic measures like nonverbal language system In a simpler way, the Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary - 7th edition, defines that "translation is a process of changing something from written or spoken form into another language" This definition shares something in common with second type of translation mentioned in Jakobson's essay Besides, translation as defined in Le & Nguyen (2008), is "the expression in another language (or target language) of what has been expressed in another (source language), preserving semantic and stylistic equivalence" By this, translation in common sense is the talking or writing about one thing using a different language The definition also clearly states two most significant criteria for translation: unaffected information and the style of the source language text But translation is not only a process, but also a product in which the translator must convey as exactly as possible the message from the source text to the target text, remaining the scrutiny of language In other words, translation, as a product, requires achievement in both linguistic and artistic effects, or three criteria of faithfulness, good form, and accuracy To further clarify "translation", another question may be put forward "What is translation for?" Venuti (1995, p.18) stresses that aim of translation is “to bring back a cultural other as the same, the recognizable, even the familiar, and this aim always risks a wholesale domestication of the foreign text, often in highly selfconscious projects, where translation serves an appropriation of foreign culture for domestic agendas, cultural, economic, and political.” In this analysis, the writer highlighted the function of translation: turning an exotic culture into something familiar with the readers, implying that translation, in the end, seeking to blur the language barriers between cultures In the context of intensive and extensive integration, this function day by day proves to be increasingly vital Translation methods 2.1 The definition of translation methods Newmark (1995, p.5) introduces a very clear and comprehensive concept of translation which “rendering the meaning of a text into another language in the way that the author intended the text.” Roger Bell (1991, p.5) defines translation as “the expression in another language (or target language) of what has been expressed in another, source language, preserving semantic and stylistic equivalences.” Mildred L Larson (1984, p.10) otherwise claims: little with the hope that she had been near nhiên, để tự an ủi, Tom thầm nhủ có lẽ bé some window, meantime, and been aware đứng nấp sau cửa sổ thấy of his attentions Finally he strode home rõ tình ý Cuối cùng, thất vọng, reluctantly, with his poor head full of Tom bất đắc dĩ phải quay trở về nhà, visions đầu óc đáng thương tràn ngập khơng biết ảo ảnh PERSONAL DETAILS Name: _Email: _ Class: Telephone: Your personal information is to be kept confidential Thank you very much for your help!
