Features of Translation of Non-Equivalent Language Units in Intercultural Communication

Abstract

The relevance of this study lies in the need to recognize the complexity of creating a text identical to the original, containing unique representations that are unique to the recipient. Emphasizing the importance of lexical tasks, it is necessary to recognize the importance of cultural and psychological aspects in working with non-equivalent vocabulary. Thus, the perception of lacunae of two linguistic conceptual spheres is determined not only by the possibility of selecting a more or less "sane" idea of the concept, but also by its adequacy in a particular act of communication. So far, linguistics has not developed unified criteria for creating an identical translation. In some cases, universal strategies are useless. The purpose of this study is to consider the features of the transfer of non-equivalent vocabulary, determining the optimal ways to overcome the information barrier in the dialogue of cultures. The results of the work prove that the main reason for the appearance of lacunae in the translation of non-equivalent vocabulary is not the absence of relevant lexical units, but the difference in conceptual vision among representatives of the two linguistic cultures.
