“Translation is like a net […]” – Problems with Translation of Phrasemes from German to Polish Phraseme are multi-word or multi-morphemic patterns with specialized meanings and functions or patterns which are typically figurative and which have non-compositional meanings. The meanings of phrasemes in two (or more) languages are rarely identical, so a translator who has to find an equivalent to a phraseme often faces an extremely difficult task. In this paper, phrasemes as a translation problem are illustrated by many examples form contemporary fiction and Internet texts.

Translation Problem in The Reality of Translation Teaching Translation problem plays a fundamental role in translation activities on all levels. It triggers a chain of translation activities of which the translator may be aware or unaware. The course of these actions and the procedures adopted by the translator are dependent on type of translation, on components of translation setting which exists in a particular, real translation situation, on characteristics of the translation problem, on the level of problem analysis, as well as on the cognitive predispositions of the translator. Acknowledging the fundamental role of the translation problem in the translation process and accepting the assumption that the quality of the translation is directly dependent on the steps taken by the translator with the aim of solving and properly identifying translation problems , one has to consider translation problem as a category relevant to translation teaching. From the point of view of translation teaching, it is important to determine translator’s qualities, abilities, skills, and knowledge areas that have influence on the quality of actions taken with the aim of solving translation problems effectively. The same applies to attitudes of future translators. Moreover, it is the task of translation teaching researchers to develop methods which will help future translators achieve the expected level of translation competence. This paper presents a concept which could provide a starting point for designing translation teaching curricula.

Artykuł ukazuje proces decyzyjny tłumacza oraz stosowanie strategii i technik przekładowychw tłumaczeniu na język angielski współczesnej polskiej powieści kryminalnej pt.,,Seans w Domu Egipskim”. Głównym celem studium jest przeanalizowanie problemów tłumaczeniowych, takich jak kulturemy lub idiomy oraz rozważenie luk pragmatycznych, które pojawiają się w procesie tłumaczenia powieści z polskiego na angielski. Dynamiczna i kontekstowa analiza strategiczna poprowadzona zgodnie z metodologią ARTS (badania w działaniu) oraz oparta na minimalistycznym modelu kompetencji według Pyma z 2003 roku, prowadzi do wniosków na temat istoty wiedzy kulturowej, świadomości znaczeń kulturowych zakodowanych w kulturemach, a także założeń pragmatycznych w komunikacji międzykulturowej. Wnioski z przedstawionego studium przypadku podkreślają mediacyjną rolę tłumacza podczas „strategicznej gry tłumaczeniowej” oraz w pokonywaniu barier komunikacyjnych wynikających z różnic kulturowych.

The study explores the translator’s decision-making process and implementation of strategies and techniques in the English rendition of the contemporary Polish detective novel entitled Seans w Domu Egipskim. The main objective of the study is to analyse various translation problems, such as culturemes and idioms, and consider pragmatic gaps that may occur in their rendition from a language of limited diffusion, like Polish, to a dominating language, like English. Dynamic and contextualised strategic analysis conducted within the ARTS methodological framework and based on Pym’s minimalist competence model (2003) leads to observations on the nature of cultural knowledge, awareness of cultural meanings encoded in culturemes and pragmatic assumptions in intercultural communication. Conclusions from the conducted case study emphasize the mediating role of the translator in “playing the strategic translation game” and overcoming communicative barriers imposed by the cultural distance.
