It meticulously examines the various translation strategies employed to convey the original's implicit meanings, cultural nuances, and communicative intent across linguistic and cultural boundaries. By analyzing specific instances from the translated text, the study identifies how translators navigate challenges related to idiomatic expressions, humor, and social context to ensure the target audience experiences a comparable perlocutionary effect. The findings offer valuable insights into the complexities of literary translation, highlighting the strategic decisions necessary to achieve not just linguistic accuracy but also pragmatic fidelity in cross-cultural communication.
