TO THE QUESTION OF THE PECULIARITIES OF THE TRANSFER OF SPECIFIC VOCABULARY FROM THE FIELD OF PSYCHIATRY FROM GERMAN INTO RUSSIAN
Abstract
The article presents a study of features of the transfer of medical vocabulary from the field of psychiatry on the material of texts on psychosocial therapy and pharmacotherapy. The work reveals the specifics of the lexical content of medical text and to determine features of the transfer of this vocabulary into Russian. As a result of the study, it is found that in medical texts devoted to the treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder, a fairly large number of multicomponent terms that are translated by finding a dictionary or variant correspondence as a result of tracing or simple substitution. A number of abbreviations are translated into Russian using their corresponding equivalents, but most of the lexical abbreviations are transferred into the target language in their original form with a transcript in German. In some cases, there are difficulties with the translation of equivalentless vocabulary, which lead to the need to resort to explication.
Keywords: medical text, term, explication, abbreviation, calque, dictionary correspondence, variant correspondence, abbreviation
