An Analysis of Translation Strategies in Dubbing ‘FrozenII’ from English into Arabic
Keywords:
Audiovisual translation, dubbing, translation strategies, compound strategies, close translationAbstract
The field of dubbed cartoons, which is one type of audiovisual texts, needs further examination due to the fact that it is a rich source of information related to all of the issues of both linguistic and paralinguistic aspects of dubbing.
The problem of the study is concerned with the translators’ choice of the appropriate strategy, and the omission of important sentences, or/and unnecessary adaptation of the TT; the meaning is affected or not delivered in an accurate way. The current paper investigates the translation strategies employed in dubbing the children movie ‘Frozen II’ from English into Arabic.
The paper has concluded that ‘Close translation’ and ‘Exact translation’ have been extensively used in the process of translating the movie.
