Haitian pupils challenge the homogenous and monolingual imaginary of the Chilean classroom primarily given their limited proficiency in Spanish and their skin colour. One bottom-up strategy implemented by some schools is the recruitment of a Haitian intercultural facilitator, whose aim is to offer linguistic and cultural support primarily through interpretation and translation. The main objective of the present article is to explore how Haitian intercultural facilitators mediate the intersection between language and race in emerging multilingual Chilean classrooms. In order to do so, the article analyses three in-depth interviews with Haitian intercultural facilitators employing the main conceptual tools offered by the model of linguistic production and circulation developed by the French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu. The main results outline that both Haitian pupils and Haitian intercultural facilitators go through a process of racialisation carried out by the rest of the school community. In turn, this affects how Haitian pupils are perceived and treated, as well as how Haitian facilitators can mediate the tensions emerging at the intersection between language and race. These findings represent novel insights into the complex but little explored multilingual schooling processes in the Global South.

This study explores Tatar-Russian bilinguals’ dynamic translanguaging and tranßcripting practices in Tatar, Russian, English, and Arabic. Based on interviews with six Tatar-Russian bilinguals as well as their written social media postings and audio recordings of voice messages over six months, the study illustrates the participants’ linguistic practices and their perceptions of bilingualism and relevant practices. The results demonstrate that the bilinguals engaged in various forms of translanguaging practices and regarded them as their everyday practices, emphasizing their ordinariness for bilingual interaction. The results also show that they expanded and reinvented their translanguaging into creative and playful tranßcripting practices in social media, regardless of their divergent attitudes towards each of the languages. The bilinguals projected their identity as cool multilingual youth through the tranßcripting practices that cross the linguistic boundaries between Russian (dominant state language), Tatar (dominant local), Arabic (religious), and English (peripheral global). By examining complex and dynamic relationships between multiple languages in an underrepresented region, this study highlights how translanguaging and tranßcripting practices reflect multilinguals’ everyday practices and their dynamic identity that go beyond the boundaries of the local languages and cultures.

The theory of translingualism has been well constructed in sociolinguistics, yet it has not been applied fully to the study of literary translation and translator identity. This paper attempts to analyze the English version of Mayra Montero’s Spanish novel In the Palm of Darkness (1997) within the framework of translingualism. Through the analysis of code-meshing and code-switching events, this article focuses on the identity construction of Edith Grossman, the English translator of the novel In the Palm of Darkness. The occurrence of translingualism is attributed to the complex dynamics of ethnic identity. Through co-participating in the construction process of Montero’s identity in different scenarios, namely resistance, transformation, and inclusiveness, translingualism helps to solve problems of translation methods on a micro scale, translator identity on a meso scale, and the approach of native culture ‘going global’ on a macro scale.

This article examines dialogue interpreting in unscripted role-plays in the community interpreting classroom. In 2019, faculty members from several departments at Viterbo University (La Crosse, Wisconsin) coordinated an interprofessional education collaboration via role-playing in the institution’s Clinical Simulation Learning Center. Nursing, social work and pre-medical students were given the health-professional roles of caring for community members with limited English proficiency (who acted as ‘patients’). Interpreting students, both heritage speakers of Spanish and second language learners (L2) of both English and Spanish, facilitated language access for all parties involved. Recordings of these dialogues were then transcribed, annotated, and analyzed via mixed methods. This study examines overall and comparative findings of how heritage speakers and second language learners interpret dialogue, focusing on the textual aspects of their exchanges. While no language profile seemed to perform particularly better overall, certain indicators were more problematic for L2 Spanish speakers and/or heritage speakers. The presentation of these results and conclusions intend to foster improved teaching interventions for classrooms with students of varying English <> Spanish language backgrounds.

This is an explanatory case study of how translanguaging offers space for practicing two shared languages: Saudi Pidgin Arabic and English as a lingua franca (ELF). It attends closely to overt types of translanguaging resources practiced by interlocutors. The study utilizes the conversation analysis (CA) approach to analyze conversations totaling 240 minutes, held in a beauty salon, between a Saudi female client and a Filipino beautician who communicated with each other using English and Saudi pidgin. The results show that the speakers’ interaction is mainly in English, but they switch to pidgin Arabic to fix misunderstandings, create humor, and engage in cooperative interaction. The study demonstrates that overt translanguaging resources employed by participants strengthen the multilingual nature of their ELF interactions, during which another contact language–Saudi pidgin in this case–can be practiced as another lingua franca. The study extends the limited literature on the nature of translanguaging in lingua franca social contexts and demonstrates the uniqueness of the translanguaging resources employed by ELF users.

This paper presents an interpretative interview study that explores a song signer’s motivations and language ideologies as they emerge in translanguaging between languages and modalities. In signing songs, the limitations and proficiencies of deaf artists’ and audience members’ particular linguistic and semiotic repertoires come to the fore. The artist mediates between the affordances of the asymmetrically shared visual and auditory channels, as well as across music, song lyrics, and sign language. In so doing, they produce a distinctive text whose appreciation may expose the partial and asymmetric repertoires of audience members, as well as the limitations of the text itself in crossing borders. These limitations and asymmetries render song signing an ethical event because the ethical possibilities of communication emerge in its fallibility.

Trust is important in public health communication to culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities during pandemics. This empirical research, using quantitative data from 107 foreign nationals at a university in Shanghai, probes into how trust varied in official translation services (OTS) and non-official translation services (NOTS) during COVID-19. Statistical analysis was carried out by IBM SPSS Statistics 26 and it was found that (1) NOTS which are more frequently used are more trusted compared with OTS; (2) NOTS are uncorrelated with demographics while OTS are correlated with demographics, among which education and trust in OTS suggest a linear positive relationship (Sig. = 0.003, β = 0.467), whereas age and trust in OTS suggest a linear negative relationship (Sig. = 0.027, β = −0.348); (3) there is a positive relationship between the frequency of using services and trust, i.e., higher frequency implies higher trust. The findings of this case study can have implications for policy makers and the representatives of CALD communities.

Abstract Over the last few years, cloud-based environments have simplified traditional localisation workflows and have made it possible for virtual teams of audiovisual translation (AVT) professionals to work together from all corners of the earth ( Díaz Cintas and Massidda 2019 ). In addition, AI-powered technologies have been integrated into localisation workflows to accelerate translation processes: this has led to a progressive automation of AVT practices and has created brand new roles for language professionals. This paper presents the preliminary results of the international pilot project ¡Sub! Localisation Workflows (th)at Work (2020–2022). A series of experiments was conducted in the spring of 2021 to compare three different workflows in the subtitling of documentaries: traditional (i.e., using only subtitling software), semi-automated (using automatic speech recognition and captioning) and fully automated (relying on automatic speech recognition, captioning and machine translation). The experiments involved twenty-four final-year MA students and recent graduates from UNINT and Roehampton University (twelve of them working from English into Italian and twelve from Spanish into Italian), in subtitling teams that included a project manager, a spotter, a subtitler, and a reviser. All the work was recorded via screencast technology and documented in a project logbook, a quality assessment form, and a workflow summary sheet. The aim of the experiments was to identify the most effective workflow equation, i.e., the one able to deliver the best quality output in the tightest turnaround time. This paper illustrates the experimental set-up and materials and discusses the preliminary results emerging from a quantitative and qualitative analysis of our data.
在过去的几年中，基于云的环境简化了传统的本地化工作流程，并使视听翻译(AVT)专业人员的虚拟团队能够在地球的各个角落一起工作(Díaz Cintas and Massidda 2019)。此外，人工智能技术已被集成到本地化工作流程中，以加速翻译过程:这导致了AVT实践的逐步自动化，并为语言专业人员创造了全新的角色。本文介绍了国际试点项目“Sub!工作中的本地化工作流程(2020-2022)。我们在2021年春季进行了一系列实验，比较了纪录片字幕的三种不同工作流程:传统(即仅使用字幕软件)、半自动(使用自动语音识别和字幕)和全自动(依靠自动语音识别、字幕和机器翻译)。实验涉及24名来自UNINT和罗汉普顿大学(Roehampton University)的硕士生和应届毕业生(其中12人从英语翻译成意大利语，12人从西班牙语翻译成意大利语)，他们被分成字幕组，其中包括一名项目经理、一名监察员、一名字幕编辑和一名校对。所有的工作都通过屏幕录像技术记录下来，并记录在项目日志、质量评估表和工作流程总结表中。实验的目的是确定最有效的工作流方程，即，能够在最短的周转时间内交付最佳质量输出的方程。本文说明了实验装置和材料，并讨论了从我们的数据的定量和定性分析产生的初步结果。

Abstract The unprecedented growth of audiovisual translation practices in the creative industries has boosted the role of creativity which has taken centre stage and become the emblem of global cultural policies. The study addresses the role of creativity in the digital space of Netflix as a means of cross-cultural mediation and communication, and as a multidimensional tool in audio description (AD), in order to provide the end-users (the blind and visually impaired audiences) of digital audiovisual products with participatory and engaging forms of access to the audiovisual ‘planet’. The aim is to investigate whether and how creativity is used to transmit culture-specific references (CSRs) from a translation perspective within a highly discussed TV series streamed on Netflix. To do so, the rendering of the most significant CSRs in the Korean Netflix series Squid Game ( SG ) as transferred into the English and Italian ADs will be examined.
