ADVERTISEMENT TEXT TRANSLATION

The translation of advertisement texts is closely related to the linguistic creativity of translators. In advertising texts especially, great value is placed on expressiveness, sound, comprehensibility and stylistics. The text of an advertisement is its most essential element of how an advertisement influences a consumer. Advertising texts have a special semantic subtext; it is rich with all kinds of artistic means of expression, the most common of which are metaphors, epithets, hyperboles, personifications and rhetorical questions. However, one must be wary of using words with an emotionally negative undertone. Advertising texts often use the problem-solution model, i.e. the advertisement defines a problem and then offers a wonderful solution, thus convincing consumers of the necessity of the product.

In creating, translating and later adapting advertisement texts, remember that an advertisement should not be overcrowded with text. The text must consist of concise, precise and well-structured sentences. Advertisement texts should not be ambiguous or unclear. Translators must work very carefully when working with the headings and slogans of an advertisement text to neatly reveal the essence of the product –the heading is often the only thing a consumer will read.

TYPES OF ADVERTISEMENT TEXT TRANSLATIONS

  • advertisement text translation and adaptation;
  • website or homepage translations;
  • video and audio advertisement translations;
  • advertisement slogan translations;
  • banner translations;
  • advertisement booklet translations;
  • landing page translations.

CHARACTERISTICS OF ADVERTISEMENT TEXT TRANSLATIONS

When translating advertisement texts, special attention must be paid to the form of address, postscript and their diminutive uses. Remember that the text of a translation cannot be perceived as disjointed or removed from its visual or audio elements; together they create a harmonious advertisement. Colours and font size only supplement the emotional flavour of an advertisement. When working with the translation of an advertisement text it’s important to consider the national mentality characteristics of your target audience, archetypes and stereotypes, as the diversity of cultural values can elicit adverse reactions. It is important for a translation to be able to retain the initial subtext encoded in it, or the emotional connection that conveys the advertisement to the target audience. Thus, when adapting an advertisement for a specific region, it is incredibly important to take into consideration every association the text may elicit.
