Abstract:
This volume is devoted to the translation of Arabic tenses into English, and
English tenses into Arabic. Using a corpus of 1,605 examples, it is remarkably
exhaustive in its treatment of the categories and forms of both Standard
Arabic and English tenses. As such, it represents a useful reference for
translators and linguistics researchers. With 260 example sentences and their
translations, the book will be very beneficial to teachers and students of
Arabic-English and English-Arabic translation.
The book is divided into eight chapters. The first presents the variety of
Arabic that will be studied and explains why translation should be a
text-oriented process. Chapter Two deals with the differences between tense
and aspect in Arabic and English, respectively. Chapter Three proposes a model
for translating Standard Arabic perfect verbs into English based on their
contextual references. The fourth chapter shows the contextual clues that can
assist a translator in selecting the proper English equivalents of Arabic
imperfect verbs.
Chapter Five deals with the translation of Arabic active participles into
English. Translating Arabic passive participles into English is handled in
Chapter Six. The seventh chapter tackles the translation of English simple and
progressive tenses into Arabic. Chapter Eight provides an approach to the
translation of English perfect and perfect progressive tenses into Standard
Arabic.
