Those who have their roots in a common linguistic stock and those who have stemmed from different linguistic stocks, share and are bound together by common socio- cultural and historical bonds. Thus translating a text from one regional language into another is a far more natural and satisfactory activity both for the translator and the reader than when the same works are translated to English. In the latter, negotiating cultural hurdles to achieve equivalence of meaning tends to be a relatively difficult task. Since even neighbouring languages do not inhabit identical universes, intersecting penumbras of meaning between two regional languages are more likely to generate a richer resonance of recognition and discovery than translated into English. Moreover the target audience is also different in each case. The paper intends to study how culture gets translated when a text gets translated into English and when the same text gets translated into a regional language. For this purpose, the paper focuses on the Malayalam translation of Bama’s novel Sangati (Tamil) by Vijayakumar Kunnissery and its English translation by Lakshmi Holmstrom. | ||
