Abstract
The study examines the translation methods used in the translation of institutional names and their common language use within the context of Hungarian-Romanian bilingualism in Transylvania, noting the language planning tasks that arise from minority status and the results of corpus design so far. The presented translation and language use phenomena emphasize that translating institutional names in minority status is a task for (professional) translation, terminology, and language planning. Within translation, it presupposes practical skills and a high level of bilingualism. In the technical and terminological context, the translation of the name of an institution presupposes an adequate knowledge of the individual fields and languages, in the absence of which unprofessional and ambiguous translations may be created. As a language planning problem, it primarily concerns corpus planning and presupposes the expansion of language rights related to status planning and expanding the scope of using vernacular languages.
期刊介绍:
Névtani Értesítő, founded in 1979, is a peer-reviewed journal of Hungarian onomastics. It is co-published by the Institute of Hungarian Linguistics and Finno-Ugric Studies of Eötvös Loránd University and the Society of Hungarian Linguistics. In the journal, the section “Articles” releases new research results; the section “Onomastics and Events” reports on current Hungarian and international works and professional events; the sections “Book Reviews” and “Reviews on Periodicals” review the latest publications of Hungarian and foreign specialized literature. The authors of the articles published in the journal are representatives of various fields of sciences, mostly researchers of Linguistics and of the related branches of Humanities and Social Sciences from Hungary and the neighbouring countries. Submitted papers go through a blind double peer-reviewing process. The journal Névtani Értesítő keeps up relations with several international onomastic journals, many of which regularly review its issues. The issues of the journal Névtani Értesítő are published in Hungarian, with English lists of contents and abstracts.
