초록

The paper analyzes different strategies for translating English [Process Quality+Thing] patterns into Korean and the problem of translationese in that process, particularly with regard to processes of 'increasing' or 'decreasing'. 'Process Quality' refers to those verbs that transform themselves into adjectives modifying nouns in nominal groups as in 'public attention increased'→'increased public attention'. This transformation constitutes what is labeled as 'grammatical metaphor' by M.A.K. Halliday. The [Process Quality+Thing] pattern rarely occurs in Korean, which makes it a challenge for the translator if he/she aims for a translation that reads naturally in Korean. The analysis using parallel corpora shows that the most preferred method of translation is unpacking the nominal group containing a Process Quality and transforming it into a Process proper, followed by shifting the Process Quality to a Process Thing. Comparison with a comparative Korean corpus confirms that direct translation of the pattern produces translationese.
