摘要

摘要本文介绍了一项关于ELF在意大利翻译行业传播的在线调查结果。它遵循了之前基于有限数量的特别采访或更广泛的调查(包括对ELF的主动评论)的认知研究。这项研究首次尝试在专业翻译和口译员中进行大规模的在线调查,专门分析他们如何看待非母语人士越来越多地使用英语的影响及其对工作的影响。共有247名T&I专业人员参加了调查,回答了有关他们的专业概况、源文本中发现的ELF相关特征、由此产生的应对策略和解决方案以及T&I的未来发展的问题。总体而言,调查参与者提出了一些挑战,从更大的理解困难到更少的工作,从而证实了之前的研究结果。然而,ELF的使用似乎也在更专业的环境中提供了新的机会,并能够与更广泛的客户群进行更好的沟通。事实上,大多数调查项目都强调了相反的观点,指出需要提高服务用户和提供者对全球卓越语言的积极和消极影响的认识。

Translators and interpreters’ voice on the spread of English as a lingua franca in Italy
Abstract This paper presents the results of an online survey on the spread of ELF in the translation and interpreting (T&I) industry in Italy. It follows previous perception studies based on a limited number of ad-hoc interviews or broader surveys including unsolicited comments on ELF. This study is the first attempt to carry out a large-scale, online survey among professional translators and interpreters specifically to analyze how they perceive the effects of the increasing use of English by non-native speakers and the resulting consequences on their job. A total of 247 T&I professionals took part in the survey, answering questions about their professional profile, ELF-related features found in source texts, the resulting strategies and solutions adopted to deal with them, and the future developments of T&I. Overall, several challenges are voiced by survey participants, from greater comprehension difficulties to fewer jobs, thus confirming the results of previous studies. However, ELF use also seems to provide new opportunities in more specialized settings and enable better communication with a broader client base. In fact, opposite views can be highlighted in most survey items, pointing to the need to increase the awareness of both service users and providers about the positive and negative effects of the global language par excellence.
