Abstract

The objective of the present study was to probe into the under-researched issue of GENDER and translation and to explore any possible relation between the two. The purpose was achieved through an experimental research. A translation protocol, consisting of wanly four METAPHORs contextualized in sentences and/or brief paragraphs were translated by.32 female and 23 male MA students. The subjects were selected from among 63 MA students of English translation through a homogenizing TOEFL test which used an adapted version of IBT. The following results were obtained: in translating METAPHORs, first, the types of strategies used by both male and female translators fof/owed exactly the same order of frequency; second, the male subjects, compared to the female subjects, made more use of the strategies: a) keeping the METAPHORs (i.e. retaining the form of the METAPHORs), b) using equivalent TL METAPHORs and c) omission of the METAPHORs; But the female subjects showed greater tendency towards: d) explaining the meaning of the METAPHORs and keeping them at the same time, e) translating the meaning of the METAPHORs without keeping the METAPHORical imagery and f) using similes.
