“…Its development has been studied from a philosophical viewpoint (ANTONOVA; MYAGKOV; NIKOLAEVA, 2019; MARTÍNEZ; ANTONOVA, 2019), from the point of view of its qualities as a translation language (VASILOVA et al, 2019). The translation of some Spanish realia connected with the Spanish holidays (El Gordo, Nochevieja), food (Turrón, Mantecado) or traditions (El Tío de Nadal) has been investigated (MARTÍNEZ et al, 2017), as well as the rendering of some Russian realia in Spanish (GONZÁLEZ et al, 2020), but the problem of translation of realia belonging to various dialects of Spanish still remains relevant.…”

This article focuses on the methods of translation and interpretation of Colombian Spanish realia into the Russian language on the material of the novels by Gabriel García Márquez. Realia as a linguistic unit is extremely essential in the process of language education, but at the same time causes difficulties with its translation. During the era of international communication and collaboration in many spheres including literature, it is of major importance to adapt some foreign concepts and realia for the receiving cultures. At the Kazan Federal University the students as future translators have taken part in a research aiming at analyzing various possibilities of translation and transfer of cultural peculiarities linked to 200 Colombian realia, selected from the works of the famous Colombian novelist. It has been found out that over 94% of the respondents have faced a problem of understanding the text due to the words the meaning of which is unknown to the reader.

The article applies modern digital methods of text analysis to analyse realia’s functioning in Camilo Jose Sela’s novel “Beehive” and their rendering into the Ukrainian language in two translations: Petro Sokolovskyi and Anatolii Sobutskyi in 1979 and S. Borshchevskyi in 2011. The authors review previous linguistic research on the definition of the national-specific vocabulary, its grouping by thematic principle, and analyse the works on realia in the Spanish-Ukrainian language pair. The procedure of studying the functioning of realia in the novel and finding their equivalents in the analysed translations involves the use of corpus linguistics methodology, namely, creating a corpus of parallel texts using the cloud translation management system Memsource and using the AntConc corpus manager to generate word lists and search for the necessary contexts. Considerable attention is paid to the procedure of identifying in the source (Spanish) text mono- and polylexemes with a national-specific meaning, their classification, and search for equivalents in translations of different years in Ukrainian. Based on the analysis of the source text’s corpus employing the AntConc programme, a list of realia was formed. Later, the way they are rendered into Ukrainian was analysed. Most often, realia are presented through transliteration, substitution, omission, and various types of translation.
