  1. R-163 · Distinction · directed

    Foreignisation → Domestication

    Meaning of the relation type
    Ein Atlasprofil grenzt den Zielbegriff ausdrücklich ab. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Foreignisation keeps linguistic or cultural differences of the source perceptible in the target text; domestication facilitates access through familiar target-language patterns. The strategies place different emphases and require assessment against their purpose and cultural consequences.
    Evidence basis

  2. R-164 · Subject neighbour · directed

    Foreignisation → Untranslatability

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Foreignisation can keep differences visible where familiar equivalents are lacking. Untranslatability names a limit to be investigated, not an automatic justification for every rendering marked as foreign.

  3. R-424 · Subject neighbour · directed

    Skopos → Foreignisation

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    Previously published English text
    A translation purpose may require source-text forms and contexts to remain perceptible. Skopos provides a way to assess whether foreignisation serves the brief; it does not establish a special claim to authenticity.
