الحذف و أثره في ترجمة معاني القرآن الكريم إلى الإنجليزية

الملخص EN

If the Muslim scholars have proved the existence of ellipsis in the Holy Quran, the translation of deleted parts in it poses various problems which relate to the extent of adding what was not existed in the source text through approximating the meaning related to the assumed deletion.

The translators of the Quran have not been in agreement in dealing with the assumptions of deleted words; some added words and phrases assumed from the context while others left them by preserving what is apparent in the original.

They also differ in the methods of translating the assumed deleted items; some use brackets to indicate the deleted items while some integrate them within the translations.

This paper aims to point out the effects of ellipsis on the translation of the Holy Quran in order to outline clear basis and principles that would be of assistance to the translators to take on the translation of items in the Holy Quran.
