The Impact of Machine Translation of the Noble Qur’an on the Semantic Value of the Produced Text: An Analytical Evaluative Study of English-language Translations and their Fidelity to the Qur’anic Scripture

Abstract

This research is briefly concerned with the field of machine translation of the Noble Qur’an. The main objective of this research is to emphasize the need for the human touch in the translation process, in order to remain faithful to the original semantic, religious, and cultural charge of the Qur’anic text. To measure the accuracy, fluency, and cultural sensitivity of machine translations, we used a mixed approach, combining quantitative content analysis and qualitative thematic analysis. Globally, the results of this research support the use of a hybrid approach combining machine translation with human editing and revision because even though machine translation has improved considerably over the last few decades, it still faces many difficulties in correctly capturing the nuanced meanings, cultural context and the wonderful literary and aesthetic style of the original Arabic-language Qur’anic text. Résumé Cette recherche s’inscrit sommairement dans le domaine de la traduction automatique du saint Coran. L’objectif majeur assigné à cette recherche est d’insister sur la nécessité de l’intervention de la touche humaine dans le processus de traduction afin de rester fidèle à la charge sémantique, religieuse et culturelle originales du texte coranique. Pour mesurer la précision, la fluidité et la sensibilité culturelle des traductions automatiques, nous avons fait appel à une approche mixte, combinant l'analyse quantitative du contenu et l'analyse thématique qualitative. Dans l’ensemble, les résultats de cette recherche favorisent le recours à une approche hybride combinant ainsi la traduction automatique et l’édition et la révision humaine car si la traduction automatique s'est considérablement améliorée au cours des dernières décennies, elle reste confrontée à des difficultés pour saisir correctement les significations nuancées, le contexte culturel et le merveilleux style littéraire et esthétique du texte coranique original en langue arabe.
