Bir Başkadır / Ethos dizisindeki sosyal ağızların çevirisinin çok düzgülülük çerçevesinden analizi

Non-standard linguistic varieties which possess extra-linguistic meanings associated with them are inserted in audiovisual products to create linguistic differences and fulfill different communicative functions such as aiding in the understanding of character portrayals. Therefore, in the rendering of these varieties, the audiovisual translation (AVT) needs to move beyond one-to-one correspondence of spoken/written text from one language into oral or written version in another. This is because audiovisual texts are comprised not only of verbal mode, but they are also multisemiotic and multimodal in nature, a combination of various modes (visual, aural etc.) which all interact in the construction of meaning. In this vein, this study aims to conduct a descriptive multimodal analysis of the translation of sociolects existing in the Netflix Turkish series Bir Başkadır/ Ethos (Oya, 2020) to find out the intermodal relations between different modes and the impact of translation strategies on the established relations. The series is selected as the case study since it depicts the interwoven relationships between multiple characters who come from different socio-cultural backgrounds. Sara Ramos Pinto's analytical framework of analysis (2017) is utilized to identify the type of sociolects, which are the most evident non-standard varieties present in the series and to examine the impact of translation on preserving, modifying, or cancelling the intermodal relations established between different modes (spoken and mise-en-scène). Consequently, 141 social varieties were detected and 14 of them were grouped under their phonological, morphosyntactical and lexical features were analyzed thoroughly. It was found that, in all the units, the translator adopted a neutralisation strategy by standardizing the sociolects. This has resulted in the loss of communicative meaning embedded in the spoken mode of the source text and caused translation to fall short to contribute to the diegetic function other modes are expected to fulfill and ultimately left the interpretation to be made by the viewer solely on other modes.
