Overview

This analysis of translation implicature in King Abdullah II’s speeches using Grice's theory highlights shifts in meaning and prioritizes clarity.

Key Points

  • Implicature shifts during translation can alter the intended meaning significantly, impacting clarity and politeness.
  • Findings indicate a preference for explicit meanings over implicit ones, affecting the communicative intent of the original text.
  • The study employed a mixed-method approach to analyze three political speeches and their translations, identifying trends in shifts.
  • Using Grice’s theory of implicature, the analysis categorized shifts into addition, omission, explicitation, and substitution.
