This thesis aims at examining shifts in the English Translation of Judgement of The General Retires and Other Stories by Nguyen Huy Thiep. The study was conducted based on the framework of Systemic Functional Grammar (SFG) by Halliday (2004), Appraisal theory by Martin & White (2005) and Catford’s Model of translation shift (1965). This descriptive study analyzed the instances of Judgment in terms of semantic features with reference to the Appraisal theory and identified kinds of shift in the translational version using Catford’s Model.

The study also shows that shifts operates at the level of the sentence and its lower constituents where such grammatical components as adjectives and adverbs were used at different positions in ST and TT when the same semantic component of Judgement was expressed in Vietnamese and English where the meaning of permanent/temporary, inherent/non-inherent attribute of the subject of sentence as appraisee of judgement was factored into the shifting. 2024-06-30T14:17:47Z 2024-06-30T14:17:47Z 2021 luanvanthacsi https://data.ufl.udn.vn//handle/UFL/426 en application/pdf Trường Đại học Ngoại ngữ, Đại học Đà Nẵng
