This study aimed at finding features of collocational deviations in the translations of Tuesdays with Mor- rie. In this direction, categories of collocations and collocational clashes, as well as causes of collocation- al clashes were explored. The present work investigated five Persian translations of the novel. All the books were examined completely and all possible collocational clashes were...

Collocations constitute a subclass of multi-word expressions that are particularly problematic for machine translation, due 1) to their omnipresence in texts, and 2) to their morpho-syntactic properties, allowing virtually unlimited variation and leading to long-distance dependencies. Since existing MT systems incorporate mostly local information, these are arguably ill-suited for handling thos...

This document describes an implemented system of collocation extraction which is designed as aid to translation and which will be used in a real translation environment. Its main functionalities are: retrieving multi-word collocations from an existing corpus of documents in a given language (only French and English are supported for the time being); visualizing the list of extracted terms and t...

Rendering the Arabic Qur'anic collocations into English has always been a burdensome and daunting job. It is ever more problematic than rendition of any genre. The recent research caveat-lector attempt that seeks specifically to investigate problematicity translating some selected from linguistic, stylistic, cultural perspectives. findings study show translations flop transfer connotative meani...

Abstract This study examined the development of automaticity in processing L2 collocations, and roles L1 collocational knowledge practice conditions process. Korean learners English were assigned to one two (practice identical or varied contexts). The learning gains for word combinations with without equivalent counterparts (L1-only L2-only collocations) assessed using response times (RTs) coef...

in different linguistic studies, usually only one type of collocations has been investigated and in the classifications that have been introduced for different types of collocations, just formal and grammatical properties of the words within collocations have been mentioned. this study, for the first time, introduces eight criteria such as pivot word, feature percolation and separability for de...
