The conceptual components of prototype theory in translating process

Abstract EN

The current paper deals the study of prototype theory as a cognitive phenomenon.

So, prototype theory can be defined as a model of meaning categorization in terms of conceptual and contextual construction.

The prototype theory has also been mapped in forms of the conceptual lexical entity –related transfer in the Glorious Qur'anic text.

Translation on the other hand is hypothesized as a process of construing the discourse according to the cultural recognition principle within the norms of idealized cognitive model of knowledge sharing.

The study then focused on categories that refer to the conceptual constructions in lexical entries to be construed by receptor.

The most important example of prototypical categorization has been furcated in me-first orientation approach.

The conceptual lexical entity is near to the psycho-cognitive system of mind, so as it comes in the first position of the semantic structure.

The eco-culture can interplay in the recognition of the semantic – conceptual construction of the discourse, and this consequently a complementary partition of the translating process as mental rather than linguistic activity.
