    SEMANTIC ANALYSIS OF LEGAL TERMINOLOGY FROM A TRANSLATION PERSPECTIVE SEMANTIC DIMENSION OF LEGAL TERMINOLOGY
    (CEP USM, 2017-03-18) Şaganean, Gabriela
    The article focuses on the semantic relations of the legal terms pointing out the semantic difficulties encountered by the legal translators. Taking into account the complexity and the variety of terms in the legal terminology, a particular role is dedicated to semantic relations. Semantic relations in the legal language are well-recognised, because the translators dealing with legal language face a wide range of synonymous, polysemous, or homonymous words. We believe that semantic relations play an important role in translating the legal language and terminology. Synonymy and polysemy are factors of ambiguity, they exist in the legal language and their identification and analysis contributes to the description of the legal terminology. Despite the number of terms expressing one concept, it is important to preserve consistency within a document, i.e. out if all synonyms, one term should be chosen. The decisions issued by the European Court of Human Rights and by the Supreme Court of Justice of the Republic of Moldova will serve as a source for our examples.

    MOTIVATION REFLECTED IN ROMANIAN AND ENGLISH ANTONYMIC PHRASEOLOGIES FOR “SUCCESS” AND “UNSUCCESS”
    (CEP USM, 2023) Balan, Oana
    This article is devoted to the analysis of motivation as a cognitive process that leads to the creation of phraseological units in the English and Romanian linguistic pictures, focusing on the antonymic relationship between the concepts of “success” and “unsuccess”. Motivation is also analysed as the ability of the individual to understand idiomatic expressions. The aim of the article is to find both common and particular parametric components of English and Romanian antonymic phraseologies and investigate the relationship between the phraseological units that build them up. The methods used for this research are those of general linguistics, but also those specific to cognitive linguistics.
