RE-EXPRESSING THE LEXICAL-STYLISTIC EFFECT BY MEANS OF METAPHOR IN LITERARY TRANSLATION
Main Article Content
Abstract
Metaphors convey subtle meanings and cultural contexts. Accurate translation is key for preserving the integrity and impact of the original work. This study uses comparative analysis to look at literary works in different translations. By examining the original texts and their translations side by side we uncover how translators work with metaphors. The framework relies on qualitatively analyzing metaphorical expressions and their effects in both the original and translated versions. Successful translations require creative strategies to balance faithfulness to the source with adapting linguistically and culturally.
