“…AVT products enrich children's cultural systems taking into account that the way of speaking, thinking, and acting varies from one culture to another. Taking this into account, when translating for children, the target texts could be manipulated by changing, deleting, or adding in order to bring it to the level of children's ability of comprehension (De los Reyes Lozano, 2017). Therefore, translators need to make decisions about vocabulary and decide if cultural references should be naturalized without ignoring the intersection of images, words, and even sounds, which are all distinctive in children's texts.…”

“…Therefore, translators need to make decisions about vocabulary and decide if cultural references should be naturalized without ignoring the intersection of images, words, and even sounds, which are all distinctive in children's texts. Thus, dubbers should be creative and need to adapt the text to the dialogues so that it sounds natural to local ears (De los Reyes Lozano, 2017).…”

“…By and large, animated movies are known for their impact on kids' behaviors and the formation of social conditions and role models (Bedekar & Joshi, 2020). Therefore, when dubbing for children, it must be taken into account that the child's way of speaking and acting changes from one culture to another, and the animated scenes must be adapted accordingly (De los Reyes Lozano, 2017). Some animated products may be redubbed after a time-lapse in an attempt to accommodate the values inscribed in any previous versions to fit the perceived cultural needs of the target community.…”

Among the animated series that became very popular and witnessed tremendous success in the Arab world is the Japanese Detective Conan, which was first dubbed in 1998 and redubbed in 2013 to convey Islamic values. However, the re-dub did not attract wide viewership and remained infamous among the Arabic anime community. This study is an attempt to investigate the differences between the two versions with a particular emphasis on technical issues and moral and value systems and explore how viewers received the Islamic re-dub. The researchers analyzed the responses of 178 viewers to a structured open-ended questionnaire. The participants demonstrated that in the first dubbed version, the image resolution, voice clarity, and synchronization were of better quality. The content analysis showed that in the re-dub, some scenes were omitted, names were replaced with Arabic ones, and references to prohibited activities were changed to fit better into the Islamic culture. The study stresses the importance of taking viewer preferences and difficulties into account when adapting media content. The current study can be used in future adaptation attempts in related environments.

“…Разница в культуре, восприятии мира и, как следствие, в объеме тех или иных фоновых знаний предполагает использование приема адаптации исходного текста для того, чтобы избежать ситуаций некорректного интерпретирования иноязычных реалий. Грамотный переводчик всегда должен учитывать особенности целевой аудитории своего перевода (особенно это касается детской аудитории [9]) и, следовательно, вносить необходимые изменения в текст оригинала для адаптации произведения к требованиям реципиента и его культуры.…”

В статье анализируются приемы адаптации национально-культурного компонента мультипликационного фильма «Coco», рассматриваемого как разновидность аудиовизуального текста. Процесс лингвокультурной адаптации играет ключевую роль при переводе зарубежного кинопроизведения, так как реципиенты обладают разными фоновыми знаниями, идиотипными картинами мира и т. д. На материале англоязычной и русскоязычной версий фильма рассматриваются приемы достижения коммуникативного равенства и прагматической эквивалентности. Комплексный анализ позволяет сделать выводы относительно адекватности перевода, выполненного Михаилом Черепниным, а также охарактеризовать основные трудности при переводе текстов данного вида. Прием адаптации был использован сразу на нескольких уровнях: были учтены общие культурные особенности, а также отличие в восприятии юмора и тем, связанных со смертью и жизнью души после нее.Ключевые слова: лингвокультурная адаптация текста, аудиовизуальный перевод, мультипликационный фильм, прагматическая эквивалентность, адекватность. Бармина Е.А., Скидан О.Г. Воссоздание национально-культурного компонента при переводе мультипликационного фильма Вестник Дагестанского государственного университета. Серия 2. Гуманитарные науки. 2023. Том 38. Вып. 3 81The article deals with techniques of culture specific elements rendering in audiovisual translation of the animated film «Coco». The process of linguocultural adaptation plays a key role in the translation of a foreign film since recipients, being representatives of different cultures, have dissimilar background knowledge, idiotype pictures of the world, and build associative links in different ways. Based on the English and Russian versions of the film, the authors characterize the main difficulties in translating texts of this type, analyze techniques used to achieve communicative and pragmatic equivalence, and draw conclusions regarding the adequacy of the translation made by Mikhail Cherepnin. The adaptation technique was used at several levels at once: common cultural characteristics were taken into account, as well as differences in the perception of humor and topics related to death and afterlife.

“…Audiovisual translation (AVT) has been attracting an ever-growing academic interest, evidenced in a recent surge of publications pertaining to the field (e.g. Bogucki 2004;Garcarz 2006Garcarz , 2007Chaume 2012Chaume , 2013Chaume , 2019Lozano 2017;Parini 2019;Minutella 2021;Huber, Kairis 2021, among others). While AVT encompasses "dubbing, subtitling, surtitling, respeaking, audiosubtitling, voice-over, simultaneous interpreting at film festivals, free-commentary and goblin translation, subtitling for the deaf and the hard of hearing, audiodescription, fansubbing and fandubbing" (Chaume 2013: 105), the pervading types of AVT are subtitling, voice-over, and dubbing, the latter being commonplace practice in the translation of animated films targeted mostly at children.…”

The aim of this article is to survey the Polish translation of The Queen's Corgie (2019), the animated movie, in terms of the dubbese employed therein. Apart from the standard features such as slang, jargon, rhyming, and intertextual references, we focus on the use inventive language pertaining to the domain of dogs, which could be accounted for by means of the analysability/compositionality parameter as proposed by Langacker in lockstep with the blending theory as developed by Fauconnier and Turner.
