La traducción al español de Entre les murs : el lenguaje coloquial, el argot y el verlan

The most remarkable difficulty of audiovisual translation is related to the translation of dialogues, which are supposed to reproduce the features of a more or less spontaneous oral language. This paper aims to analyze the difficulties and the strategies adopted for the translation into Spanish of the film Entre les murs (2008). This film, which depicts the daily life of a group of students and their teachers, is known for being a reflection of a French social reality, namely the reality for young people who live in the suburbs, which constitutes a particular universe. From a linguistic point of view, this reality is defined by the use of an oral register, a language characteristic of young people and by the presence of slang, specially the so-called verlan.

Lengua española y lengua vasca: una trayectoria histórica sin fronteras

[es] El nacimiento de la lengua castellana se produjo en estrecho contacto con la lengua vasca: es probable que el espacio navarro haya sido el punto de conexión entre ambas. Pero la historia lingüística común de español y vasco se desarrolla, sobre todo, desde el siglo xvi hasta hoy. En este trabajo consideramos algunos hitos que permiten afirmar que, hasta fines del siglo xix, el universo vasco y el castellano convivieron sin tensión social: a pesar de los avatares del siglo xx, las relaciones entre el español y el vasco no han conocido fronteras a lo largo de la historia. Por ello es posible imaginar, en el futuro, una convivencia respetuosa (mejor todavía si fuera integradora) de ambas lenguas y de ambos mundos. [en] The birth of the Castilian language occurred in close contact with the Basque language: it seems that Navarra has been the connecting point between both of them. But the common linguistic history of both Spanish and Basque runs together from the sixteenth century until today. In this paper we consider some milestones that support the conclusion that, until the late nineteenth century, Basque and Castilian universe lived without special conflicts: so and in spite of the vicissitudes of the twentieth century, the relations between the Spanish and Basque have not known borders throughout history. Therefore it is possible to imagine, in the future, a respectful coexistence (even better if it were inclusive) of both languages and of both worlds.
