Abstract:Cilj te diplomske naloge je ugotoviti, kako so angleški modalni glagoli prevedeni v slovenščino in ali obstajajo kakšne podobnosti oziroma razlike med originalom in izvirnikom. Ukvarjala sem se z vprašanjem, ali so bili pri prevodih uporabljeni ustrezni slovenski modalni glagoli oziroma so namesto le-teh uporabljeni drugi izrazi. Prav tako me je zanimala pogostost uporabe modalnih glagolov. Podlaga za analizo je bilo delo The Da Vinci Code – Da Vinčijeva šifra avtorja Dana Browna. Kjiga je bila ena največjih uspešnic zadnjih let, prevedena je bila v več kot 44 jezikov, po njej je nastal tudi film. Iz izvirnika sem izbrala več stavkov in jih primerjala s stavki v prevodu. Podala sem svoje mnenje in predloge možnih prevodov. Kot se je pokazalo v analizi, je izbira prevodov oziroma ustreznih ekvivalentov v veliki meri odvisna od konteksta, razlog za drugačne oblike prevoda pa velikokrat leži tudi v strukturi izvirnega stavka. Rezultati naloge so pokazali, da se v angleškem jeziku modalni glagoli veliko bolj pogosto uporabljajo, tako v pogovornem jeziku kot v besedilih. V slovenskem jeziku raje uporabljamo druge oblike oziroma bolj primerne fraze.

Title:Modalni glagoli v Da Vinčijevi šifri Dana Browna v izvirniku in prevodu
Abstract:The aim of this diploma is to find out how the English modal verbs are translated to Slovene and if there are any similarities or differences between the original and translation. I was interested in finding the answer to the question, if appropriate Slovene modal verbs were used in the translations or if other phrases were used instead. I was also interested in the frequency of appearance of the modal verbs. The groundwork for my analysis was the book The Da Vinci Code from the author Dan Brown. The book was a worldwide bestseller, translated into more than 44 languages and was also adapted for film. I chose a number od sentences from the original and compared them to the translations in Slovene. I gave my opinion and suggestions of possible translations. As the analysis showed, the choice of translations or appropriate equivalents is to a great extent dependent on the context. Another reason for a different form of translation is often the structure of the original sentence. The results of the analysis showed that in English modal verbs are used more often, in discourse as well as in texts. In Slovene we tend to use other forms of verbs or more appropriate phrases.
