COLLABORATIVE TRANSLATION FROM SERBIAN TO ITALIAN LANGUAGE: LJUBIČICA BELA ŽENI LEBL

Abstract

This work analyses the usefulness of collaborative translation carried out during a workshop held at the University of Turin. First, the concept of collaborative translation is defined and the advantages and disadvantages associated with this type of translation are discussed. Then, the digital tools used are introduced and some of the translation problems encountered are presented. The main conclusion of this article is that, even if collaborative translation has some disadvantages, the resulting advantages are more important. Moreover, even some of the disadvantages it presents (for example the difficulty in finding a common point of view, the difference in translation styles etc.), it familiarises students to mediate constructively and to open their minds.
