Résumé
La traduction bénévole peut être effectuée à des fins et orientations différentes autre que son objectif essentiel. Cette étude vise à révéler le regard des ONG et des traducteurs turcs sur la traduction bénévole, tout en attirant l’attention sur le but essentiel du bénévolat ainsi que sur une sensibilisation à ce sujet. Dans ce contexte, les discours des ONG turques sur leurs sites web et ceux des traducteurs turcs sur le site Proz.com à propos de la traduction bénévole sont analysés dans le cadre de l’analyse critique du discours. Les résultats de l’analyse révèlent que la majorité des ONG turques considèrent la traduction bénévole comme une activité qui peut être exercée par toute personne connaissant les langues étrangères. Cette approche des organisations conduit à un questionnement sur la qualité des traductions. En ce qui concerne les discours des traducteurs turcs, ils révèlent que la traduction bénévole est majoritairement effectuée dans le but d’acquérir de l’expérience et de présenter des références professionnelles. Cette approche des traducteurs conduit à un questionnement sur l’objectif essentiel de la traduction bénévole. Les résultats démontrent qu’une sensibilisation à ce sujet est nécessaire pour que la traduction bénévole soit effectuée conformément à son objectif essentiel.
Abstract
Voluntary translation, which should be carried out on a voluntary basis, may be carried out with different purposes and orientations. This study seeks to reveal the views of Turkish translators and NGOs in Turkey on voluntary translation. The aim of the study is to draw attention to the fact that voluntary translation should be carried out on the voluntary basis and to raise awareness on this issue. In this context, the discourses of Turkish NGOs on their websites and those of Turkish translators on the Proz.com website about voluntary translation are analysed within the framework of critical discourse analysis. The results of the analysis show that the majority of Turkish NGOs consider voluntary translation to be an activity that can be carried out by anyone speaking foreign languages. This approach of the organisations leads to a questioning of the quality of translations. As for the Turkish translators’ discourses, they reveal that voluntary translation is mostly carried out with the aim of gaining experience in translation and presenting professional references. This attitude of the translators leads to a questioning of the main purpose of voluntary translation. The results show that awareness on this issue is necessary so that voluntary translation is carried out in parallel with its essential objective.
