Osvojování tlumočnické notace na příkladu studentů s jazykovou dvojicí angličtina-čeština / Learning note-taking skills: a case study of interpreting students with English and CzechMlčochová, Jitka January 2019 (has links)
(in English) The thesis looks at interpreter's notes that are taken during consecutive interpreting. The thesis focuses on note-taking of numbers and links, two elements that are generally recommended to write down. The theoretical part briefly summarizes information about the topic and looks at the note-taking handbook by Andrew Gillies (2017). Based on the thesis of Kateřina Matrasová (2012), the empirical part presents two experiments to find out if numbers and links are captured. The experiments were carried out on two groups of students from the Institute of Translation Studies at the Faculty of Arts, Charles University: 9 students from the 3rd year of the BA study programme English for Intercultural Communication and 6 students from the 2nd year of the follow-up MA study programme Interpreting: Czech and English. The analysis of the students' notes in the 1st experiment shows that in total the students noted down correctly 20 out of 25 numbers reaching an 80 per cent success rate. The MA students had better results (an 88 per cent success rate compared to 75 per cent success rate of the BA students). It can be seen that all the students had a system of noting numbers and that this system proved helpful to them. The 2nd experiment indicates that the students are less likely to capture links in...

Using multimodal analysis to investigate the role of the interpreterBao-Rozee, Jie January 2016 (has links)
Recent research in Interpreting Studies has favoured the argument that, in practice, the interpreter plays an active role, rather than the prescribed role stipulated in professional codes of conduct. Cutting-edge studies utilising multimodal research methods have taken a more comprehensive approach to investigating this argument, searching for evidence of the interpreter’s active involvement not only through textual analysis, but also by examining a range of non-verbal communicative means. Studies using multimodal analysis, such as those by Pasquandrea (2011) and Davitti (2012), have succeeded in offering new insights into the interpreter’s role in interaction. This research presents further investigation into the interpreter’s role through multimodal analysis by focusing on the use of gesture movements, gaze and body orientation in interpreter-mediated communication; it also looks at the impact of the state of knowledge asymmetry on the interpreter’s role. This thesis presents findings from six simulated face-to-face dialogue interpreting cases featuring three different groups of participants and interpreters representing different interpreting settings (e.g. parent-teacher meeting, business meeting, doctor-patient meeting, etc.). By adapting a multimodal approach, findings of this study (a) contribute to our understanding of the active role of the interpreter in Interpreting Studies by exploring new insights from a multimodal approach, and (b) offer new empirical findings from interpreter-mediated interactions to the technical analysis of multimodal communication.

Role tlumočníka v komunikační situaci a její explicitní projevy / The Interpreter's Role in Communication and Its Explicit ManifestationsVávrová, Iva January 2019 (has links)
This master's thesis studies explicit manifestations of the interpreter's role in consecutive interpreting - specifically in interpreted debates after films at the One World film festival. Consecutive dialogue interpreting in front of an audience is an interesting genre of interpreting, which is fairly common in the Czech Republic, but rather underrepresented in interpreting research. Its unique features are especially salient in case of interpreting between English and Czech, as this means a large part of the audience is then likely to have some level of comprehension in both of these languages. The One World festival also often employs young interpreters - students or graduates of Translation Studies at Charles University - and serves as one of their first work experiences. The theoretical part of the thesis provides an overview of existing research in the field of dialogue interpreting and film festival interpreting. It also presents the theoretical framework used to analyse the manifestations of the interpreter's role in authentic interactions. The framework divides these manifestations into several layers of analysis - role as an activity, facework, and norm orientation in language management. It also employs the tools and terminology used by conversation analysis. The empirical part is then...

“Siempre hemos sido intérpretes”: identidades y roles de intérpretes indígenas en el sistema judicial peruano. / “We have always been interpreters”: identities and roles of indigenous language interpreters in the Peruvian justice systemMatayoshi Shimabukuro, Bryan, Montalvo Guerrero, Kerly 07 April 2022 (has links)
El artículo analiza las perspectivas de un grupo de intérpretes de lenguas indígenas sobre la interpretación en el sistema judicial del Perú. Se condujeron entrevistas semiestructuradas con ocho intérpretes de diferentes lenguas indígenas, quienes relataron la adquisición de la lengua de su pueblo y del castellano, sus actividades profesionales, sus procesos de inserción en las políticas lingüísticas estatales y sus miradas sobre las relaciones de poder que se evidencian en su trabajo con el Estado y en el sistema judicial en específico. Se exponen las perspectivas de las y los participantes sobre su relación con las comunidades indígenas que reciben el servicio lingüístico y con operadores de justicia. Estas interacciones construyen diferentes dimensiones identitarias en el conjunto de intérpretes, a la vez que marcan sus entendimientos sobre sus roles y estatus. / This paper analyzes the perspectives of a group of Peruvian indigenous language interpreters regarding interpreting in the Peruvian justice system. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with eight indigenous language interpreters, in which they described the learning process of both their indigenous language and Spanish, their professional experiences, their integration process through the language policies implemented in Peru and their perspectives about the power relations they experienced while working in Peruvian governmental entities, specifically in the Peruvian judicial system. This paper also presents the interpreter’s perspectives regarding their interactions with judicial officials and the indigenous communities requesting the interpreting services, which helped to build different aspects of their identities within the group of Peruvian indigenous languages interpreters and shaped their insights about role and status. / Tesis

Strategie ochrany tváře tlumočníka / Face-preserving Strategies in InterpretingRichterová, Hana January 2015 (has links)
The present thesis applies the sociolinguistic concepts of politeness and face on interpreting theory and practice. Interpreting is, in its essence, highly face-threatening, which is reflected in codes of ethics adopted by interpreting vocational associations. Having insight into two cultures, interpreters can use their communication competence to preserve the face of their recipients or the speaker. For the Western society, it is natural to protect one's own face in communication; however, such efforts can collide with the endeavour to convey the message faithfully and precisely. The thesis therefore studies the strategies that interpreters apply in face-threatening situations and presents examples of what interpreters do to save face, including such events when face- preserving outweighs conveying the message. There is also a discrepancy between the conventional role of a neutral or passive interpreter as a message conduit and the role of interpreters as active communication participants who take the initiative. By analysing interviews and an online survey, the study demonstrates that many interpreters believe that their role is an active one and their impact on the output of interpreted interactions is significant. Keywords: face, politeness, interpreting, face-preserving strategies,...

Komunitní tlumočení a jazykové zprostředkování na základních školách v Praze(případová studie) / The role of community interpreter working for non-profit organisations in the field of migration - case studyVávrová, Kateřina January 2015 (has links)
This thesis deals with the communication between primary school representatives, foreign students and their parents. Our primary focus is the use of professional community interpreting and child language brokering for this purpose. In the theoretical part of our paper we firstly describe migration in the Czech Republic and then introduce the two main points of interest: community interpreting and child language brokering with a focus on the school setting. The empirical part of this study presents the results of our research, that was conveyed as a case study. Our aim was to analyze how certain primary schools in Prague communicate with students and parents who do not speak Czech; to what extent they use community interpreters and what is their opinion on the role of interpreter at school and on this service in general. We also asked the schools whether and how often they request the foreign students to act as interpreters and to what extent they feel this solution is acceptable in various situations. In order to obtain a comprehensive view, we conveyed a similar survey among community interpreters. We discovered that community interpreting is not a common solution in overcoming language barriers in the selected schools. Even though they perceive this service in a positive way, they struggle with...

Tlumočnická neutralita při tlumočení na vysoké úrovni. / The interpreter's neutrality during interpreting for high-level officials.Shyianok, Krystsina January 2018 (has links)
(in English): The diploma thesis "The interpreter's neutrality when interpreting for high-level officials" is a theoretical and empirical work and consists of two parts. The theoretical part tries to look into the concepts of neutrality, impartiality and bias and to point out the multidimensional nature of interpreter's neutrality. It also provides an overview of existing approaches to interpreter's neutrality and highlights the essence of high-level interpreting. The empirical part is a research probe that maps how professional conference interpreters who interpret for high-level officials in the Czech Republic and the Russian Federation view the concept of absolute interpreter's neutrality. At the same time it inquires whether they sometimes face the absence of interpreter's neutrality. Lastly, it outlines factors that can influence interpreter's neutrality and examines possible impacts of neutrality absence on interpreting performance. The results of empirical part may become a springboard for further research in interpreter's neutrality.

Tlumočnické samostudium / Interpreter's Self-trainingChládková, Sabina January 2017 (has links)
This master's thesis deals with interpreter's self-training. The aim of this theoretical-empirical study is to give an overview of the interpreting students' attitude towards interpreter's self- training as well as of the techniques students use when they perform their self-training. Another aim is to describe the role of teachers in interpreter's self-training, i.e. to what extent they motivate and support their students when it comes to self-training. The research part of the study was conducted at the Institute of Translation Studies, Charles University, and at the Department of Translation Studies, University of Graz, with the aim to compare the situation at those two institutes taking into account the abovementioned criteria. The theoretical part of the thesis discusses interpreter's self-training in the context of deliberate practice and focuses also on group practice as well as on the teachers' role. It also presents methods, techniques and e-learning tools which students may find useful during their self-training. The empirical part consists of an analysis of the data collected by means of questionnaires at the abovementioned institutes. Collected data suggest that both institutes support students' self-training, be it to different extents, and offer them all the necessary tools and...

Výuka tlumočnické notace ve Spolkové republice Německo / Teaching Note-taking for Consecutive Interpreting in GermanyHradilová, Helena January 2019 (has links)
The present thesis focuses on the teaching of interpreter`s notes within selected universities in the Federal Republic of Germany. The aim of this theoretical-empirical study is to find out how lecturers teach note-taking, which sources they use, and how much importance they assign to teaching note-taking. Findings from German universities are compared with responses from research participants from a university in the Czech Republic. The theoretical part of this study introduces the topic of note-taking in a wider context of interpreting, discusses the prevailing systems of note-taking in more detail and deals with teaching note-taking and some of its aspects. Tools and technologies used for note-taking are also mentioned. In the second, empirical part of the thesis, the goals, chosen methodology and possible limits of the research are presented. Participants and universities selected for the research are also introduced. The data is collected by means of questionnaires and semi- structured interviews. Findings from both of these methods are then compared based on thematic areas. Although the target group of the research is relatively small, and the results are therefore not fully decisive, a number of noteworthy trends have been identified which may serve as basis for future research. Also, the...
