TRANSLATION UNITS

After reading the text to be translated, the role of a translator is to go beyond words to the concepts behind those words. Word for word or literal translation is hardly ever possible. French and English are not sister languages and although there are semantic similarities due to a common vocabulary stock and mutual borrowings over the centuries, both languages differ in grammar and syntax1. Both languages have different characteristics. The translator must learn what the concepts and units of thoughts are in the source language, delineate the message to be translated into as many translation units as there are concepts, and finally translate them into the target language 2.
A translation unit is the smallest portion of a sentence whose words cannot be translated separately without resulting in nonsense or mistranslation.

Le plus petit segment de lnonc dont la cohsion des signes est telle quils ne doivent pas tre traduits sparment. (Units lxicologiques ; units de pense). Translation units can be lexical or grammatical. Over-translation is a common mistake if one sees only one TU instead of several, resulting in nonsense or mistranslation (erroneous interpretation of the SL). Example: de bonne heure: includes only one translation unit (meaning: early). If more than one TU is seen here, the result is nonsense: of good hour, at a good hour . The meaning of the original TU has been lost. Examples from both French and English: Parts French English of speech Nouns / Noun phrases un htel de ville a city hall un chef dorchestre a conductor lquitation horse back ridding Verbs / Verb phrases montrer du doigt to point donner un coup de pied to kick rentabiliser to make profitable simmobiliser to come to a standstill
