Series: Translanguaging in Theory and Practice

This book brings applied linguistics and translation studies together through an analysis of literary texts in Chinese, Hindi, Japanese and Korean and their translations. It examines the traces of translanguaging in translated texts with special focus on the strategic use of scripts, morphemes, words, names, onomatopoeias, metaphors, puns and other contextualized linguistic elements. As a result, the author draws attention to the long-term, often invisible contributions of translanguaging performed by translators to the development of languages and society. The analysis sheds light on the problems caused by monolingualizing forces in translation, teaching and communicative contexts in modern societies, as well as bringing a new dimension to the burgeoning field of translanguaging studies.

Reviews for Translanguaging in Translation: Invisible Contributions that Shape Our Language

Dr. Eriko Sato presents a fascinating analysis of interlingual and intralingual translanguaging practices observed in texts translated from Asian languages to English and vice versa. Her rich accounts of historical developments concerning the languages, combined with her accessible writing style, will engross researchers, as well as teachers, learners, and translators of these languages. * Junko Mori, University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA * Inspired by the tenets underpinning the multilingual turn in applied linguistics, Eriko Sato conducts a detailed empirical investigation into the role of interlingual and intralingual translanguaging in shaping the norms of language use, particularly when traces of such practice are found in translated texts. In doing so, she shows that translation and translanguaging complement each other and are clearly beneficial to language learning. * Sara Laviosa, University of Bari Aldo Moro, Italy * Sato's insightful analysis and thorough comparisons between source and target texts in less frequent languages represent a valuable contribution to the fields of languaging, translation, and applied linguistics. -- Laura Dubcovsky, University of California, Davis, USA * LINGUIST List 33.2489 *
