1	Entre vocablos y volcanes : Dificultades terminológicas y formas de dirigirse al lector en un texto especializado para turistas. Ringmar, Ingrid Maria January 2015 (has links) This has paper has two main purposes: to analyze the translation of specialized terminology and ways of addressing the reader in a specialized tourist text in Spanish and its Swedish target text. The terminological difficulties on volcanism in the translation concerns the fact that the semantic field on this topic is diversified in the Canary Islands, contrary to the semantic field on volcanoes in Swedish. The theoretical background in this paper gives keys to describing the meaning of words in terms of connotation and denotation and describes how to use semantic components to solve the difficulties of terminology. The theory applied to the difficulties concerning ways of addressing the reader in the source text, explains the relation between the sender and the reader in terms of distance and closenes. The paper shows that the source text is inconsistent in this matter. To solve this task the translator has adopted a homogeneous way of addressing the reader, to achieve a target text loyal to the Swedish speaking reader and to consistency. The translation of tourist texts has been thought of as being an easy task, not demanding too much of its translators. This paper aims at showing that this is not the case. volcanic terminology tourist texts forms of addressing the reader interpersonal structure Teide National Park semantic field denotation connotation descriptive and functional components terminología geológica textos turísticos formas de dirigirse al lector estructura interpersonal Parque nacional del Teide campo semántico denotación connotación componentes descriptivos y funcionales
