DIDACTIC FOUNDATIONS FOR TEACHING THE TRANSLATION OF ENGLISH EUPHEMISMS IN HIGHER EDUCATION

In contemporary linguistics and translation studies, increasing attention is paid to the study of euphemisms. Euphemisms play a key role in shaping polite, indirect, and socially acceptable language. However, there is still insufficient research on the pedagogical approaches to teaching the translation of English-language euphemisms into Ukrainian, especially within the framework of translator training in higher education institutions. The translation of euphemisms presents a particular challenge: it requires maintaining the communicative intent, emotional tone, and stylistic features of the source text, while adapting the message to the cultural and linguistic expectations of the target audience.

Abstract

In contemporary linguistics and translation studies, increasing attention is paid to the study of euphemisms. Euphemisms play a key role in shaping polite, indirect, and socially acceptable language. However, there is still insufficient research on the pedagogical approaches to teaching the translation of English-language euphemisms into Ukrainian, especially within the framework of translator training in higher education institutions. The translation of euphemisms presents a particular challenge: it requires maintaining the communicative intent, emotional tone, and stylistic features of the source text, while adapting the message to the cultural and linguistic expectations of the target audience.
