| Research Abstract |
In this study, we investigated the cognitive processes of the translation between Japanese and English in terms of such related fields as linguistics, psychology, information science. The investigation was based on linguistic data of mistaken and confusing translation. In this study, we especially concentrated on the clarification of the cognitive processes of direct and contextual translation, criteria for the evaluation of mistaken, direct and contextual translation, and further the basic difference between Japanese and English linguistic frames.
In so doing, we took into consideration the following specific problems: 1. correspondence between lexical and grammatical structures in the compared symbolic systems(i.e. compared languages in question), 2. difference and disparity of cognitive frames between the compared languages in question, 3. psychological factors involved in translation, 4. transformational processes between the symbolic systems to be compared, 5. formal and semantic correspondences between Japanese and and English grammars and their pragmatics.
Previous studies on translation are mainly concentrated on the analyses of literary texts. Overall studies of translation for colloquial texts and discourese have thus far been ignored. In this study, E have investigated in detail the congitive mechanism of translation involved in colloquial texts and discourses as well as literary texts, especially iwth a view to clarifying problems 1-5 above. This study provides a wide range of insights not merely into the general mechanism of translation but into that of human information processing in general.
