≪红高粱≫ 중한 번역에 나타난 문장의 비대칭성 고찰― 문장 수 증가를 중심으로

Abstract

On top of readability, the accuracy is also very important for translation. The accuracy means the accurate translation of meanings of the original text while maintaining the sentence form of the original as much as possible. However, for the readability, translators sometimes increase or decrease the number of sentences by breaking the sentence boundary of the original text. This paper calls it the asymmetry of sentences. In the Chinese-Korean literature translation, such increase/decrease of sentences is a main asymmetric phenomenon of sentences. Through the comparison between the original and translation of Red Sorghum, this paper has revealed that such sentence asymmetry is universally shown in the Chinese-Korean translation, and also things in common and differences between two translations. Among the asymmetric phenomenon of sentences, this paper has focused on the research/analysis of the increase of sentences. The increase of sentences can be divided into five types such as subject disagreement, separation of predicate, separation of logic relation, separation for emphasis, and separation of punctuation mark, colon(:).
