La traducción español-francés de locuciones preposicionales en el lenguaje comercial. Estudio comparativo basado en corpus

Abstract

Researchers in business translation have neglected the study of the translation of general language despite it might pose problems at least for translator trainees. The aim of this article is to discuss the translation of this kind of vocabulary in business language, especially the translation of prepositional phrases from Spanish into French. First, we study the concept of prepositional phrases and identify and classify these groups of words that appear in our parallel business corpus. Then we study how they have been translated from Spanish into French. The results may be used, among others, in translation training.
