Abstract EN
This paper examines the manipulation of ideology in translating Arabic into English the UN Women Iraq (@unwomeniraq) tweets related to the representation of Iraqi women post 2003 Iraq.
This is to identify and observe the source text and target text similarities and differences and to trace the identification of ideologies represented by the interpersonal meaning via critical stylistics.
Jeffries (2010) critical stylistics is selected as a model of analysis to explore how language is used to evaluate, take actions, build textual personas and manage interpersonal positions and relationships by focusing on expressing feelings, approving and disapproving, in addition to applauding, criticizing actions and find whether manipulation is used in the English translations, or not.
The study reports the manipulation through the usage of most of the function, except negating, hypothesizing and presenting others' speech and thoughts, as UN Women Iraq tweets do not seek to negate a reality neither to shape non-existent reality nor to present others' speech/ thoughts, as they have their own identity and do not need to adopt or pass others' speech/ thoughts.
However, the highest percentage in UN Women Iraq tweets are noticed in the prioritizing function, for the aim is always to shed light on a certain message/ idea and thus such function is used.
Also, it is noticed that most of the tweets are gender-based and addressing social and political threats rather than encouraging women empowerment.
