Prevođenje ograđivača (hedges), pojačivača (boosters) i oznaka odnosa prema sadržaju (attitude markers) sa švedskog na hrvatski jezik

This master's thesis explores the translation of interpersonal metadiscourse markers (hedges, boosters, and attitude markers) from Swedish into Croatian. Firstly, the theoretical background is given, based mainly on Hyland's (2005) framework. The characteristics, function and categorization of metadiscourse markers are explained, as well as how they differ from discourse markers. Secondly, multiple examples of translation solutions from my own translations of three texts are presented and analysed for each of the three groups of markers. The analysis aims to show different approaches to handling these three types of metadiscourse markers in translation and highlights minor differences in their respective translation solutions. Finally, the thesis compiles three Swedish source texts and their Croatian translations, as well as four Croatian source texts and their Swedish translations. The Swedish source texts encompass a study, a review article and a tourism text, while the Croatian source texts include an excerpt from a cookbook, a feature article, a political speech and an overview of an integration programme.

Abstract

This master's thesis explores the translation of interpersonal metadiscourse markers (hedges, boosters, and attitude markers) from Swedish into Croatian. Firstly, the theoretical background is given, based mainly on Hyland's (2005) framework. The characteristics, function and categorization of metadiscourse markers are explained, as well as how they differ from discourse markers. Secondly, multiple examples of translation solutions from my own translations of three texts are presented and analysed for each of the three groups of markers. The analysis aims to show different approaches to handling these three types of metadiscourse markers in translation and highlights minor differences in their respective translation solutions. Finally, the thesis compiles three Swedish source texts and their Croatian translations, as well as four Croatian source texts and their Swedish translations. The Swedish source texts encompass a study, a review article and a tourism text, while the Croatian source texts include an excerpt from a cookbook, a feature article, a political speech and an overview of an integration programme.
