ترجمة العنوان في أدب الطفل: عناوين القصص أنموذجا

Abstract EN

This research aims to shed the light on the translation of titles in children’s stories, considered as the first step on which the child’s eyes fall and the main feature that attracts him to read the content.

from here, the title of the children’s oriented literature takes its importance, we can name it as the text advertising signal which could reorient the recipient to move to the content, and since the reader of this kind of texts is a special kind, due to the limitation of his mental ability and age sensitivity, the title choice in the original language requires a certain kind of exactitude because the writer is asked to associate between clarity and suspense in choosing the title to achieve its functions.

the translator is asked to control the simple language and the simple style same as the first writer did when he wrote the book, by keeping the same level in language and style when transferring the title to other languages, and this is a source of challenge in translation.
