Towards Translating Spoken Language Pragmatics In An Analogical Framework
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper argues that stylistically and pragmatically high-quality spoken language translation requires the transfer of pragmatic information at an abstract level of "utterance strategies". A new categorization of spoken language phenomena into essentially non-meaningful "speech errors", and purposeful "natural speech properties" is introduced, and the manner in which natural speech properties convey pragmatic information is described. Finally, an extension of the analogical speech translation approach is proposed that accounts for such higher-level pragmatic information.
