Abstract
Misunderstandings between speakers of different languages occur not only on a linguistic level but also on a cultural one. Consultation of a bilingual dictionary does not necessarily help in this case, as information on the cultural level is often missing. In this paper we will discuss how bilingual dictionaries can draw attention to cultural divergences so that the dictionary user acquires cultural knowledge and is able to build an intercultural competence. Examples from four bilingual dictionaries (German-Italian) are given to illustrate how culture-bound words are represented. For this purpose, a classification of culture-bound words is offered. Finally, the prerequisites and possibilities of an appropriate representation of culture-bound items in bilingual dictionaries will be proposed.
Schlagwörter: Kulturspezifika; kulturelle Äquivalenz; Übersetzung; Deutsch-Italienisch; Zweisprachige Wörterbücher
Keywords: culture-bound items; cultural equivalence; translation; German-Italian; bilingual dictionaries
