Meeting Description:

Media landscapes do not remain linguistically stable, but are in a
state of constant development. Some
languages and language varieties come to the fore, take on new
functions, conquer new media
domains, others are pushed back, lose visibility and importance, or
change their roles. Depending on
places, as well as speakers and media, the relations between first and
heritage languages, second and
foreign languages, diglossia, varieties, dialects, regiolects and
ethnolects, dominant and endangered
languages present themselves in broad and multifaceted, and often also
ambiguous ways.
In the context of translation studies, prominently active at the
interface between media and languages,
this linguistic diversity has always posed a special challenge. In
addition to written, audiovisual and
audio formats, hypermedia and interactive text types have increasingly
become the focus of interest
in recent years. How might a regiolect appear appropriately in a film
subtitle? Are dialect songs really
untranslatable? What should be considered when translating
multilingual graphic novels and
computer games? What role do dialect inserts play in advertising and
how could these be translated?
These and similar questions are in the focus of the 9th MMDT
conference, organised from May 17-18,
2024 at the Institute of Applied Linguistics at the Adam Mickiewicz
University in Poznań,
Poland.  MMDT (MultiMeDialecTranslation) is a cyclical
interdisciplinary conference, focussing on the
interface of linguistics, media, communication, and translation
studies, and has been organized since
2002 in various countries.
