Systematic review of polysemy research highlights gaps in translation studies, indicating the need for diverse methodologies.
Key Points
Polysemy poses significant challenges in translation, highlighting the complexity of conveying multiple meanings from source to target languages.
Empirical research predominantly examines polysemy across various translation domains, reflecting diverse methodological approaches and data collection techniques.
Systematic literature review based on PRISMA guidelines suggests a growing need for studies focused on culturally specific texts and their polysemous challenges.
Future research should prioritize interdisciplinary collaboration and address the multilingual needs of translation to enhance understanding of polysemy.
